Things go from "What the heck are we looking at" to "Hey, there's a pattern here of multiple guns!" on this forum, johno. Spiegels, 99H's, 99R's, early postmil 99E's and their variations...
Sometimes it just takes time to figure things out.
At this time, it might be best to start looking at all 99C's, 99DL's and 99F's in the Axxxxxx serial number range to see if they have bosses or not. From my data, it's looking like the cutoff for boss to no boss is there. Not sure if it's early A numbers, or mid A numbers.
johno, don't suppose you have a picture saved of that 300 from a couple years ago?
