Thank you RAS "...aspire to live quietly, and to mind your own affairs, and to work with your hands, as we instructed you, so that you may walk properly before outsiders and be dependent on no one." - Paul to the church in Thessalonica.

I've read Marlin would add the holes for a fee at request before 1957 but most likely anything older that's D&T was done by a gunsmith. I've always been crazy but it's kept me from going insane.
