Thank you, everyone, for your input and opinions. I decide not to do any restoration and to send the gun to Dave Yale for a good cleaning.

Bill, the issue was not just to identify known 14ga guns, but to identify which ones had ejectors. That was George Lander's point, and my reply was that a person could go through the Serialization Book records if so inclined.

Here are a couple photos. The first is from TPS p. 1004 and doesn't provide a extras listings. The second is SB p. 590 and does. For example, look at SN 236,459. TPS doesn't show if it has ejectors and SB shows that it has "2" extra, which means ejectors.

So to me, there would be a need to read the Serialization Book if a person wanted to find which guns were ejector guns. Am I wrong as usual?

Thanks. I didn't realize the TPS chart didn't include options.

Were there any other 13 ga guns apart from the consecutive pair?

The 18 ga gun is even rarer.
