Again go back & very carefully read post 1 & 2. Look at the length of the word that is filled in & think about the words Sterlingworth & Krupp. With absolutely no other input If I were to put that up, & you didn't know me from "Adams Off OX" (old southern expression) real honest now, What would you Think I had done??
There are hundreds if not thousands of people who read this board who never post. If nothing else has been accomplished I hope it has been made clear the only reason this was legitimate was that the Krupp name was there originally, although there was no reason to assume or even guess this was the case. How many Sterlingworth bbls carry a Krupp mark?
I have for instance an H grade Lefever with unmarked steel bbls, as were most of them. Lefever catalog states they came with "Carmen Fluid Steel" bbls. Grades E & higher were regularly available with Krupp Fluid Steel bbls & were so marked. For me to decide this gun would look better with Krupp stamped on the bbls & to put it there would be totally irresponsible & a complete forgery. So once more if you will be totally honest, there was no reason from the facts which had been posted for me to think otherwise than this is what had been done, nor any real reason to ask more questions.
