    Bad news - there should not be any barrel proofs below about 40,000. So it appears that has been replaced as well. Sorry - it will likely remain a mystery.

    Well! So be it. I didn't pay much for it and its still a solid gun. What does this do to the value? I take it its not a $4000 gun. Ha! jt2778@bellsouth.net I have another one I'd like to run by you at some point. Its a long gun, model 86, rescued from the scrap pile years ago. Anyway thanks again.

    Well, it is still, apparently, a real trapdoor carbine, with a provocatively numbered receiver, and, as such, could bring between $1500 and $2000, perhaps - but - the big money is, alas, out the window.
