Without seeing the gun but knowing it's S/N, I'd guess it's the lowest grade back action lifter gun with a straight grip. Some of the old back action guns were chambered for the 12b brass cartridge which has the same dimensions as a 14ga. paper shell. I'll also venture a guess that the bore diameter is equivalent to an 11ga. gun. I have actually seen 12b/14 entered in the first stock book. I have one S/N 63 and I know of at least one other that a member has.
