Description
Best way to describe this is ancient shotgun is... BEAUTIFUL. Really a fine piece of craftsmanship. I found it at our last meeting of Ohio Gun Collectors and I bragged on it all weekend. Appears to be 1770s to 1800 era. The barrel proofs are unfamiliar to me. The pineapple finial on the trigger guard is a classic English feature, but the barrel proof marks do not look English to my eye. The convex lock and the frizzen with a cast raised decoration combined with the mystery barrel proofs may indicate manufacture on the continent. It does not really matter where it was made... it is a great antique work of art, in fine condition. 100% original, 100% complete, and mechanically perfect. 20 gauge. Half stock. Carved horn nose cap. Well engraved. Checkered wrist. High comb.
