I came across this gun and have been unable to find out anything about it. Anyone ever hear of them before? Thanks.

Nice looking gun. Have you tried a Google search of the maker?
|
Ask about it over on gunshop.com
Lots of knowledgable folks over there. |
Proof marks? they could narrow down the location and even a time span.
|
Yes I tried Google and came up empty. I have asked the owner for pics of the water table and barrel flats to see if proof or other marks there can shed some light. I will give it a try on the double gun forum. Thought I would give it a whirl here first. Thanks for the responses.

unless you know some one with a library of Geoffrey Boothroyd's books, as suggested, the doublegunshop folks are the next best place.
looks like a nice piece |

By the looks of it I wouldn't be surprised if it was an American Maker along the lines of George T. Abbey Post it over on doublegunshop, as Dean & O.H. said. Perhaps Bill McPhail would recognize it. JMHO

Don't know the name right off-will look in my reference books tonight. Looks to be on
a Scott action. Pictures of the action and barrell would be very helpful as to origin. Nice medium grade gun in good condition Reguards Bill McPhail |
Eric:
Just from the photos you have, I'd say the odds are it's a British gun. Or at least the bits came to the US from UK, and were finished up here. I can find no maker by that name in Boothroyd's directory -- or any of the Nigel Brown books. Thus, I think the "maker" was American, but got his components from Britain. The basic cut of the frame looks very much like it was made at W. & C. Scott. Best, Kensal |
