10 Ga. Trap
Okay guys ,here goes ,I would like opinions on this Hammer Gun ,I recently acquired ,this gun ,Serial #27425, I beleive this gun to be a very early Double Barreled 10 Ga. Trap Gun . On Page 392 ,Volume 1 ,TPS ,The book shows H & D Folsom ,New York order a special run of Trap guns from Parker Bros. ,The guns are mostly 10 Ga. guns w/ a slightly higher Rib and a special Butt treatment with a Flying Pigeon instead of the standard Dogs Head ! I recently have purchased what appears to be ," Possibly " one of these " Rare " guns ,in TPS ,it says at the time of Printing ,none of these guns have ever been found or even seen . Since publication ,have any of you Gentlemen seen any of these guns ? Does any one else have one ? Pictures will follow ,just haven't had time to take any yet ! My guns date is a little earlier than " THE Folsom " order ,but I thought it possible they may have used up some guns that were in house , Any Ideas ?? I ordered a Letter last week and am looking forward to its arrival ,although ,TPS says there wasn't very much documentation to these guns ! Russ
