Forgot to mention, this is NOT the same as a 183. The bore is smaller at ~.680". Found that out the hard way awhile ago.

If it's not a 183... what is it?

It looks pretty rugged but Eb was my educated guess, too. Looks too small to be a BBb or CC and someone posted a photo of one of these but with a forward bell a few months ago.

If a bell of some sort could be found, this could be a worthy reason to roll the dice. The damage looks like time, age and use rather than vandalism.
