Vytas,
I found the post I was talking about;

"Just to add a bit of information about the polycylindrical Buffet R-13: last year I bought two Buffet Bb's at auctions. One was a serial #48526 (1954) which was definitely the larger bore Buffet type previous to the the polycylindrical R-13 and a serial #48830 (1955) which was a smaller bore, polycylindrical design. Just two examples, but a bit more indication that 1955 was the year Buffet started marketing the Carree polycylindrical R-13."

I think we are getting close.

An additional "Data Point" FWIW.
#424XX...19/7 Buffet(not an r-13?)
top of UJ---------- 0.582"
bottom end of UJ--- O.572"
Can't get my gauge very far into the bore to check for another diameter.
