Yes, I finally saw it. The flash helped as I do not have a flashlight here at work. New one on order.

I've been told that the rifling is a 3 land and groove that was done when the barrel was relined during the conversion from percussion to metal casing.

I need to see if Ed will allow me to run a 50 cal bore brush through it to see if I can clean off some of the rust. I do know this gun has not been cleaned in over 40 years, possibly longer.
