This ’73 has a 32″oct. bbl.. Can anyone tell Me what M.W.and C.(instock column) means and obviously the letter does not mention 32″ oct. bbl.. I believe the gun is correct and hasn’t been messed with.

Harry,

You need to get a image of the ledger entry so you can see in what context it was written. It could be initials of a company name. I haven’t come across it before.
