" & " Stamp Appearing on Spencer Breechblocks
« on: September 16, 2008, 04:48:41 PM »
I was wondering if this is the marking of a modern manufactured block or some type of vintage inspection/proofmark ?

The “&” stamped on the block of a Spencer indicates that it is a reproduction center fire conversion block that was made by S & S Firearms out of NY.

Life is not a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in a handsome, and well preserved body; but rather to skid in broadside, thoroughly used up, totally worn out and loudly proclaiming...."WOW!... What a ride!"
