Bill,
The serial number is 79884. The gun was shipped one day after the order was received to C. H. Tucker in Wakefield, RI. The gun was returned 20 years later by A. L. Lamphere from Stonington, CT. Thanks for your help.

After loading my first/lightest 8 gauge load, the overshot wad ended up 1 1/4" from the end of the brass shell. Does anyone know if shooting the shell "as is" will create a problem? In order to get the overshot wad close to the end of the shell, I would need to put 2 additional 1/2" thick cushion wads below the shot. Wouldn't this increase the pressure and maybe affect the shot pattern. Any thoughts?
