Default Simmons 20

I have this shotgun enroute. I bought it to fill in a perceived need for an American made gun of the Stevens 311 type. Evidently, these were made in the sixties with the Fox B/Stevens 311 guns as a base. Alternatively, they could also have a frame/barrels made in Italy or Spain by a company named Dakin.

One internet source says the frames were sent to Simmons bare and they made the barrels, stocks and finished the guns. Looking at the pictures, before the gun's arrival, I think the barrels were made by Savage, not Simmons. Simmons may have added the rib and that was it. I'll know more once it arrives.

What are your thoughts?
