Here is a friend’s heirloom gun, which was apparently used by his grand-father, William O. Taylor, a member of the family which published the BOSTON GLOBE for over 100 years.
It is in the serialization book and there are factory records available.
He wishes to know opinions on value; may want to sell it; understands that he cannot offer it on this forum for sale and also asks about restoration advisability.
The pictures are not very clear, but there are quite a few of them.
It accords with the Serialization Book. Serial number is 100 835 (thus, 1901); 12-gauge; DH; reportedly a #2-frame; Titanic steel 30-inch barrels; top-lever; no extras; capped pistol grip. It exhibits a pinned stock head and deteriorated butt pad (originality unknown). Case color reportedly negligible. Barrels not examined or rung.
Any comments would be appreciated.
