Wow, that's a lot of research! Thanks for sharing it. I would love to get another 91 or two, but they seem to be pretty scarce around here.

Congrats! As MillerTyme said, 20's era M91's don't turn up that often. :thumbsup:

I am not familiar with the term "5 line". I have heard the M91 being referred to as a "three line," which to my understanding means roughly 3/10's of an inch. Or is it something that is just specific to the Tula.
