Trying to date 2 slotted shrouds that do not say "SuperMag or a caliber on the Left Side.....(unmarked)
Do not have a caliber designation on the Right Side underlug.
But, they do have "Monson Mass U.S.A" on the shrouds Right Side underlug. It's the "U.S.A" that make these unusual.
So, technically they are Large Frame universal shrouds.
Anyone have any like them? (one of two is pictured 2nd from Right)
And yes, these were DMs. Trying to find them pictured in his body of journalism have been evasive

The 2 marked 445 are Palmer shrouds.
I've got some blue Vent 44 mag shrouds with no markings at all on them. Not sure why. Maybe they just slipped by?
Anything worth doing is worth doing well.

Thanks, I know the Palmers.
Asking about the "Monson Mass U.S.A" on the shrouds Right Side underlug.
It's the "U.S.A" that make these unusual. My model 11 has USA on the frame. But, I don't think any of my shrouds have ever had "USA" after Monson Mass.
Asking if this unusual stamping might be a known first, or at least date them.

I too have a large frame shroud with no markings. It can be used for 44,45,460 and maybe others. Mine is 4"VH. I suspect it is an EWK.
The one with USA is something I have never seen but it is assuredly Monson.

I've never seen one like that either. The factory sure has lots of variants out there.

According to the photo, the slotted shroud with the scope has the caliber clearly marked. But yes, the other slotted one is definitely not one I've seen before. Interesting!

All I know is that the blued 445 shroud & barrel need to be at my house!

Stan has a 10" for you. Since both the Monson and the Palmers are pre-production prototypes, and value is TBD, they are not for sale.

I was joking, I had no delusions that they were for sale, but thanks for the referral to Stan's 10" anyway.
