I found a very similar gun up in Vermont a few years ago. I had a Grieb “sponge” pad that was FUBAR. I put a silvers on it, and toasted 25 targets the first time out. 32” as well.

Beautiful SBT`s... Conley`s book "The American Single Barrel Trap Gun" has a lot of great information on the Baker Gun Co. One Barrel Trap Gun. The Single Barrel`s were made to order and
no two were made exactly alike. Have several variations in the SBT collection.
Conley credits Roy Mason as Baker`s engraver and some of the higher grade guns were engraved by Kornbrath…

interesting - Roy Mason was a Batavia NY artist known for his watercolors, I have seen some of his work for sale around here but have passed due to lack of wall space.

according to this, his father Frank was the engraver, but it may have run in the family
