Anyone know anything about a Hopkins & Allen double sidelock? I just bought one in 20 ga. that appears to be pretty well made.Its a plain jane but with nice wood to metal fit and decent wood.
The frame is small and the whole gun is light with a pleasing appearance.
I thought it was a steal at $180. I think they were only made for 2 years[1913-1915].

It appears that this design gun started life as a W.H. Davenport --

then was made by H & A for a while, and finally became an Iver Johnson --
