welcome Tom, what part of Ohio are you from? I grew up in Belmont county, and work in Martins Ferry--but now live just across the river in Wheeling. We would all love to see some pictures, and then you could get some good feedback. I'm sure someone will look up the serial number and chime in.

You may be in to big a hurry to hang it on the wall especially if it happens to be a 16ga or 20ga.
