I picked this old shotgun up yesterday. It is what some call a model 1877 three trigger. The front trigger is like the the lifter on a Parker it opens the gun. It is a 12ga and I plan to shoot it with brass hulls and black powder. Hammers work at half and full cock. The triggers work. It was off face and a little loose but it wasn't anything a brass shim wouldn't fix. One firing pin seems to have a spring and the other is just loose. The barrels have good pattern and the bores are clean which they could have been honed. I like the looks of its patina but can't help but wonder what it would look like with case colors and freshed up.
