Nice high condition A-Grade. Interesting that it doesn't appear to have the FOX-PROOF stamp on the barrel flats.

I've got a 1928 vintage Sterlingworth that doesn't have the FOX-PROOF stamp on the barrel flat.

Whoever has had it apart didn't get the trigger plate fully seated and the screw isn't indexed as it should be. Likewise the top tang screw.
