I'm at our place in Kodiak, so don't have the gun at hand, but as I recall the only marks on the gun are the serial number on all the parts and Baker Gun Co. on each lockplate. I've always been rather amazed by the lack of Patent dates and other marks on the gun. Chris Schotz photographed the gun at one of the early Vintage Cups at Sandanona. I guess because of the straight grip and the pigeons on each lockplate and the trigger guard, it has been assumed it might be the $100 Pigeon Gun that was apparently mentioned in some 1897 Baker paper according to the old Baker Gun Co. article by Wallace Labisky in Shooting Times back in May 1962. I don't recall anything in that article saying the $100 Pigeon Gun had Whitworth barrels, just that it was a steel barrel version of the normally Damascus barrel Paragon. None of the Baker paper I have mentions the $100 Pigeon Gun.
