Rich, The letter with it states it was ordered by Shreve & Barber Co. of San Francisco on Oct 12th 1912, the letter on the gun states LOP 14-1/4 DAH 2-1/2, no DAC recorded barrels are 28" plain steel, as you can see the gun is stamped "P" for the grade. I think this gun must have been made up after the Top Lever hammer guns had fallen from fever, It is a late gun, Gary

What a wonderful gun. I can see the smoke from the targets as a load of #8's centers them on a classic left to right crossing pair
