I currently have 855580 in my collection. I have one other Black Diamond 1897 that I need to check the serial number.

Are you saying that S/N 855580 is a Black Diamond Trap Gun? Can you send me pictures of it? Per the factory records, it was manufactured in November 1929.

Burt, My Black Diamond has a plain barrel. The pistol grip is the older round knob type. I would say that it is 2X wood. I can send you a picture if you like. But, will have to wait until Sunday, when I see my Son after Church to help me with that.

Is the bolt marked “TRAP GUN” ? With a plain non-matted barrel and a round knob pistol grip, it sounds more like a “Fancy Finished” grade shotgun versus a Trap Gun.
Please send pictures when you can.
