We just received this lovely example along with about 200 other guns, from a collection that sat in an attic for close to 100 years. This is a Double Barrel Percussion shotgun in a small . 50" bore, perhaps 32 or 36 bore. It is fitted with unsigned back action locks that bear minimal engraving on the plate and hammers. The left side of the barrels is marked with the "Tower of Lige" proof mark, indicating manufacture
