That is certainly a very nice shotgun. I hope that you have many enjoyable hunts with it. Please correct me if I am wrong, if memory serves me, I believe that the Colt shotguns were actually made for a period of years by the English firm of C.G. Bonehill of Birmingham to Colt's specifications and exported into the U.S. until the McKinley Tariff was introduced in 1890 which over a period of years ended the association with Colt. It certainly appears to be a quality shotgun.
