    Dang it. Well I'm glad it finally went through for you. I really like the one I bought from last Thursday. According to the date codes on the barrel mine is from Feb 78 or Feb 96

    Cool, I have a 1994 PM 870 that I got from Brian. I believe this was used as a Brinks security gun in NYC. I think he found some sort of registration paper with one of the guns from this batch that indicated some use from Brinks in NYC.

    If anybody got any of the LE trade Wingmaster from South Carroll, I think I found the department where some of them came from. I googled the serial number on mine and found an inventory list from a wholesaler listing inventory from what I believe is the Mississippi Bureau of Narcodics. If your gun has an LE marking like “BDE-19” this is probably where it came from.

    https://srm.magic.ms.gov/SAP/EBP/DO...=BBP_P_DOC&SAP-CLIENT=100/3. SHOTGUN LIST.PDF

    Here’s the bid form from the same wholesaler, there were 31 shotguns from this department:

    https://srm.magic.ms.gov/SAP/EBP/DO...P_DOC&SAP-CLIENT=100/SIGWRM400BIDFORMFY17.XLS

    ^^ also I’ve had luck googling the serial number. That’s how I found one of my Wingmasters was from the Mississippi Bureau of Narcodics.
