Lifter Ser # 18070
Lifter serial # 18070 arrived on my door step last Saturday in the hand of the gentleman that called the evening before. It is a 2 frame made in 1880. Quite nice condition overall with one replaced screw on the trigger guard and frosted bores.
The BOOK provides that it is a PT-U-0-P-10-30. All match (gun and book) except the 10 gauge part. The bore will not accept a 10 ga. shell. A 12 Ga. is loose. I tried a Parker 12 ga. (A) brass case and it fit perfect. Would this have been chambered for this brass case at this date?
