Tried to get a picture of the marking on the bottom rib. Too small to show up..and it's a tiny roll stamp..Not an engraving..I've searched 16 GA BY LYNDEN WA..I found nothing that gives any clues ? LOP is 14 1/8 to the DHBP...and it matches the patina of the rest of the gun..

Jerry, it's probably a Canadian import, imported by a Washington company. Morphy's (formerly Julias) has been using this company to bring guns in from the Great White North. Borderview I think is the company name, explaining the "BV" mark. The markings are the neatest and least intrusive import marks I have ever seen. The marking is mandatory for imported guns. Google Borderview Imports for information on company procedures.

Bill..Makes sense. The gun came from Oregon. I tried again for a photo with a better camera, but it's still too small. Measures about 3/8" long with letters about 1/16"...Thanks..j..

I wonder if there is a company on the East coast that will send guns to Maritime Canada?

Talked to Borderview people yesterday...The looked up the SN on this gun, and told me it was imported in Oct/2016 by a "well known collector"..whose name she would not give me. It was sent straight to Morphys Auction..where it was sold..I don't know if my seller was the buyer at the auction..

Well that answers your question.
It has always been a shame that guns end up getting marked up one way or another when traveling from country to country. But, the law is the law I suppose. If anything, it is at least documentation of it's travels.
