Small frame reciever
 

Does anyone have an idea who made this little reciever. I'm guessing Spanish Thanks Thomas

wheres the rest of it thomas...looks like a fine little piece... charlie

Charlie: Thats all I have is this paper weight.I was just curious as to who built the little guy.Thomas

nice paper weight and your probably rite about it being spanish built....charlie

the next to last picture show some fuzzy proof marks that look Spanish

is the left most a shield with a X in it and a knight's helmet over? and another shield on the left


nice ducks

Rick: That is correct on the first shield but the second shield has a bp with a oblong o in the shield Thomas

that one is a "prueba suplementaria" a Suplemental or additonal test

the middle one - shotguns crossed with a design in the middle is the "prueba Denfitiva" the final/definative proof

so left to right

Admission or acceptence mark, definative and lastly and an additional - wonder why?

I saw one other well engraving 20 bore Spanish gun a few years ago with no makers name (passed on it, too heavy for my taste), my Spanish gun book is packed away, but I wonder is they had "guild" gun process like other countries.

Yes, it's spanish. Many variations were made, but they all have the same distinguishing features.
