Scott:

You are definitely "on the right track", i.e., membership and research letter applied for, and asking the right people.

The "Serialization Book" confirms grade 2, or is a GH; hammerless gun; no extras; capped pistol grip; 12-gauge; 30-inch barrels.

Do your barrels measure 30 inches?

Does anyone in your family know anything about what is apparently a business that etched its initials on the water table?

I recommend caution regarding the "almost chrome" bores. Aggressive honing could be responsible for that and give a false sense of security. A qualified person, with the right equipment to do it properly, should measure the minimum barrel wall thickness to assure that the gun is safe to shoot.

More photos, including muzzles; barrel flats, trigger plate, will likely elicit responses from knowledgeable people on here, both about the gun as it exists now, and possibly historical background info.

Welcome to the PGCA.
