Butcher- BAKER- Candlestick maker?

But still, thanks to a certain contagious virus picked up here, I'm looking at it. Barrels cut to 24". Checked with the Baker guys and to their knowledge no 24" guns came out of the factory.

Nice looking gun, Jack! What model is it? I have a chart for serial numbers and dates of manufacture. Charlie, the bores are near mint, also. The full chokes deliver some awesome patterns at 40+ yards with my one ounce loads. I really wanted a 10 bore hammer gun, but prices for most of them frightened me. I stumbled across this one on the Doublegunshop forum.

From the Baker guys, based on the pics. Not mine yet.

Jack, the gun looks like an A Grade. The A [Damascus barrels] and B [twist
barrels] were the first Baker Hammerless guns. Yours is a later gun,
probably 1905, give or take a couple of years. I have never seen a 24"
factory barreled gun. Daryl

I'll take a look at their site. Yes, you have the right Daryl. Here are the rest of the pics I have.
