[QUOTE="Brandi, post: 2278711, member: 24446"] I wasn't sure where to post this since it deals with a military gun but it was a black powder cartridge and there was no category for antique or C&R stuff so if it needs to be moved please do so. I've got a very nice 1873 Springfield carbine (was cut down probably in the late 1800's or early 1900's and was done very well). This carbine is beautiful, in my opinion, and I want to learn as much about it as possible. I've had the serial number searched and I know a bit about it from that but it has an unusual stamp/cartouche in the stock that is just too small to show up in a picture and some online experts were really curious to find out what it is, as am I. I was hoping someone might know of a "trapdoor" expert in OKC where I could take it and get it looked at in person. I doubt it increases any value but the curiosity is killing me and I have researched this until my eyes hurt and have found nothing on this stamp/cartouche. If anyone knows of an expert here in OKC if you could let me know I would greatly appreciate it. Thanks. [/QUOTE]
