Eric:

The Model 4 was made in 3 different configurations. The earliest, beginning in 1890 had a solid frame. Next was a lever take-down. The third was the screw take-down like yours. The barrel code you provided indicates yours was made in May, 1924. The value as a collection piece was damaged by the chrome plating. Enjoy it as a shooter. It sounds like you are...
