I've poured through numerous posts and read everything I can find about the different barrel markings for my 1943 RR. I can't find anything that matches my barrel and I'd just like to authenticate the gun. All the frame and slide markings check out.
My barrel says "45 AUTO 7791193" on top (visible without removing barrel). It is stamped "P" on the underside. The Right Locking Lug has an "M" on the rear and a "P" on the front. The Left side locking lug has what appears to be an "S." And it is followed by a tool marking symbol of some sort that is tough to make out. Can anyone help me out with the make (and period) of this barrel?
