It appears to be as old as the gun. My guess is the milling was to facilitate capping. I have not seen this milling feature addressed befor in my reading, so I wondered what ya'll might know!

Ahh! One of the mysterious CA guns.............

I'm not seeing the "v notch" though?

This one shows a slight milling to the same area!

Is this one of the ones you sold?
