Well I own both the Bearcat and Super Bearcat #24 and 91-00024 also NM Bearcat 93-00024.....

Rod, send a pic of the serial number on that one.
I've always had a feeling there should be some "re-worked" Bearcats about that serial number range since the 99xxxx range guns were made about the same time and there are 4 re-works known in that now.
If the serial number looks like it is heavy stamped, it is re-worked. If the serial number is lightly stamped it is normal.

Any of you have any idea of the value of an early model Bearcat, serial number CO 49? It is in very good condition.
