Can anyone give me a schematic of 86 barrel markings based on year and or serial number. i’m looking at a particular 86 and the markings do not coincide with one I have. Albeit 1907 v 1908. ,1907 is my gun and I know its legit. One being sold is the 1908. any help will be appreciated.

You really need to get a copy of John Madl’s reference book. He covers that information better than anyone else.
