Nice. Maybe Rick has jotted it down in his notes.

Looking for a R & D serial # XPAN #1 That sounds like a needle in a haystack. But worth looking. How do you know # XPAN #1 exists? I could be wrong, but didn't 260Remguy have knowledge and/or a list of the R&D items sold years ago?

Didn’t RAS have some sort of R&D gun a while ago?

I don't have anything on it.
Is that a serial or a marking?

FUG1899,
Over the years I've seen some very nice pieces you have in your collection and have seen references to your collection. I am unable to find a thread that has a lot of details though. Is there one around I just wasn't able to find, specifically lever guns?

Fug is looking for a rifle he has a lead on and a serial number for . Someone on here may know of it . I don't but if it's anywhere it may be here. The hunt itself is a big adventure .

Is it one of the ones Ralph had with the wider stocks & with no narrowing at the rear of the receiver? I think he said he had three of those once.
ADDED - I think if one of those were on a table I would walk by it even though I know about them!
