I don't shoot the modern shotguns I have, but always wanted a BP double barrel to hang on the wall.
I saw this one at the local thrift store.
I looked at it and thought, 'Oh noooo,,,'.
No makers marks or numbers.
The muzzle measures .710" and the barrels are 35" long.
What ever parts of the stock aren't broken and patched together by someone working at the dinner table, are cracked.
The right side panel and hammer was replaced with plain one that doesn't fit much less match.
The hammers are different and the RH one doesn't hit the nipple- but it's OK, the RH trigger doesn't work either.
The LH side plate engraving was sanded through to hot blue them and the barrels, before it was left to rust away.
The trigger/hammer springs in it are broken.
The stock was re-varnished, along with the trigger guard.
The brass buttplate and rear of the stock was painted black to look 'modern'.
The lug under the barrels that hold them to the stock is gone-
but that's OK, the stock is broken off where the hold down screw goes anyway.
Most of the screws going into the wood have been replaced by larger ones 'borrowed' from under the kitchen table.
On the good side:
I always wanted a old shotgun to hang on the wall,
and for $55. I just couldn't leave it there.
All the proof marks are still readable under the barrels, they may be a good research project to identify it.
