I'm being given a Martin Committee with the serial number 151121 (1945ish). There no other numbers on the valve block. How does one know what bore it is?
Thanks![/img]

Committees built prior to the 50s did not have any number stamping indicating bore, you will have to use calipers to measure your Committee's bore size. |

Umm actually there is a 3 on my 1947 Large bore committee. #3 is the large bore. #2 is medium or no stamp is medium , 1 is small bore. If it is indeed a committee from that era no stamped number means Medium bore. https://thebrasscellar.com/identifying-bore-sizes-of-martin-instruments/
