I don't know about the 141s but the 740F, 742D and 760F I have do not have the barrel codes visible. The 740 & 742 have them stamped on th underside of the barrel covered up by the forearm. The 760 isn't stamped or at least I haven't found them. I haven't stripped it down.
I haven't a clue about the "lazy F".
Any chance for pictures of the "D" grade? It would be interesting to compare engraving styles with later "D" grades.

Re: Carl Ennis engraved Model 141
Gene, is there any more information about E Grade 141s? I am not active in RSA affairs any more, but I hope you enjoyed my article on the Sousa 10F.
Re: Carl Ennis engraved Model 141
Gene, I have recently purchased a very nice 10E two barrel set. I wonder how scarce they are? I still own the John Phillip Sousa 10F that I wrote about in the RSA Journal and they look great together.
Re: Carl Ennis engraved Model 141
I guess no one is interested in these guns, like a 141E, a 10E two barrel set, or a 10F two barrel set owned by John Phillip Sousa. I guess I'm out of here.
Re: Carl Ennis engraved Model 141
Reluctantly, I sold the ultra rare 141E, Ennis engraved .35 Remington. I would like to have it back, but I think the new owner would not think the same way.
