1905 TA

[Jay Oliver]

Here is a relatively late 12 gauge TA hammer gun with a fishtale lever made in 1905. It has 30” Twist barrels choked IM/F with 3” chambers(I was surprised by that). It’s on a 2 frame with a 14 3/8” LOP and weighs 7lbs 11oz.

It has a “P” on the frame, but the engraving seems more like VH engraving. The letter lists it as a quality “U” grade. It seems used and not too abused. A fair amount of dings in the wood, but a nice hammer gun just the same. Bores are excellent, this may have never had a black powder shell through it, which seems strange for a hammer gun. It fits me real well and I am looking forward to shooting it. This is my "newest" hammer gun.
