I'm wondering about the timeline of the chrome bolt markings.  I know the P is right for 601 - anybody have any idea when the switch to MP was?  Anybody have any idea as to the approx. date of last use of chrome bolts?

Surely someone has at least a little info.....

So much of the detailed information seems to be a little conflicting and very hard to pin down a date.  Just from Ekie's guide it might be a safe guess to say late 65 into 66; when the barrels were stamped MP as well.  That would be my guess.

There's some info in this thread I started a while back.

Thanks, that link helped a little.  I struggle with dating stuff the same way I do at work - we know X came before Y, but not exactly when.  Oh well.  I guess we're doing better here, though, as we've got it down to a couple years, instead of a few hundred or 20-30.
