Drew, where did the picture come from. It looks like Remington advertising except for the double gun, maybe Dupont or Hercules. Could it be out of "The Sport Alluring"? The Model 31 is easy to identify. However, the picture may be pre 1931.

The image is from the cover of the Sept., 1952 Sports Afield, and the pump shooter looks like this fella from a c. 1950 Peters ad (except now he's got an 870)



which is from a picture that was in that Handbook of Shooting book I promised you, but ended up giving to Frank Finch for the 'L.C. Smith Skeet Gun' display at the NRA meeting this summer.
