The cylinder differing from the other serials is called a "campfire switch' by John Kopec. With the numbers being that close what undoubtedly happened was a switch during cleaning of several guns.
Interesting the "C"asey inspector stamping. Seems to be puckered around the C. Several guns in that serial range were inspected by "L"ewis.
Nice find!
