That is an interesting question Drew, for while inspecting the gun last evening; I removed the butt plate and found what appears to be a name lightly written in pencil on the butt. Unfortunately, my eye balls, as is the case with the rest of my bod, are old and I simply couldn't make out the inscription well enough to read what had been written. The primary reason, besides my eyes, was that the name/inscription was written over a very rough surface; seems a router bit had be used on the end of the butt for some unknown purpose, and that factor combined with the lightest of the pencil mark made reading a challenge. At any rate I'll keep trying; but it sure would be nice if the name did indeed turn out to be an individual we know from history.
