Both have Timeny triggers, both are high number '03's.

Roy Weatherby never had anything on Herter's for la de da stocks.

Yeah, for sure.

Even back then when it was "cool", I didn't like all that flair, cut a bucket load of wood off that comb, including the roll over. It don't "roll over" no more...... grin

At least Herter had pretty good wood, including this French Walnut. And IIRC, it was std. grade, not select.
