Yeah, Gpa used to carve his own stocks and that might be one of his. Unfortunately he is long gone and with dad gone there is no one in my family left to fill me in on the history of these.

Here is the other one. This one has NO markings anywhere, no makers marks, no caliber, no dates....nada. Its noticeably larger caliber than the 257.







Thanks again for any info guys, it really is appreciated.
