Brian,
Will you do that? That may be the best way, that way I will know what I have and if it is safe.

Sure, as long as you can be patient because I have a huge backlog here. Perils of the one man band. Contact me direct at bdlltd@bellsouth.net and we'll get it sorted out. Thanks.
I would be concerned about the possibility the forend has been spread out at the rear, you should see the end of the cross threaded rod reinforce, not just a hole.

Let me go up to the safe and check that!
In the meantime I placed a special order with Clymer for a .074 Field gauge, couldn't find one anywhere and Brian recommended them. I am going to post a thread about that, they are doing a prototype run that can take 6-8 weeks, but if we get enough people who want one they will bump it up to a production run (15 needed), the prototype was $30 plus shipping to get it done.
This is what you should see.

I just checked it and it is there, smooth with the stock on the left side and just recessed about 1/128 of an inch on the right side, I think the picture makes it look like it is not there.
Looks like someone may have taken it out and hit it with a punch? rather than smooth it has a slight bevel sort of like a very shallow V
