Does the engraving even look correct?

Way way way too far gone for me... or my wallet.
That must have been quite the gun in its youth. Looking at the floor plate I would say the engraving, for the most part, is original. Noooo... I just looked more closely - that engraving can’t have been approved by Charles A. King - it would never have passed his muster. .

I have a big bonfire going in the back yard right now. I would throw that wood right on top of it. I am sure whoever did the barrels would not want there name published. Still a B grade 20 ga with 30 " barrels--what does the book say about it? Curious to know.

The more I look at that gun, the worse it looks

Prototype hammerless? 10 years or so before hammerless Parkers came to market. It's one of a kind

Chuck, I was just thinking the same thing--by the serial # would have been a hammer gun.
