OP Anton Sidelock Joined: Jun 2002 Posts: 193 Edmonton, Ab. Ca.	The following photo is of the proof marks of a Westley Richards boxlock purportedly manufactured in 1922. Since the photo is rather large, I have posted a link rather than the actual picture. http://homepage.mac.com/scottandlaurie/.Pictures/Westley%20Richards/IMGP3894.JPG Note the bore diameter marked as .740". Is this a re-proof after honing? When do the marks on the barrel flats date from? What information can you "read" from these proofs? Thank you in advance for any information or opinions you may have to offer. Anton
