Here's mine. A 12 ga. T/A on the 1-frame No. 36488

I kinda like the extra screw head engraved on the bolsters. I guess the engraver added it for a balanced appearance - the plunger lock screw being above center on the bolster.

Anyway, this is one of my project guns. The wood is now nicely refinished and the barrels are next. The trigger guard and skeleton butt plate are done (I've shown them before) but I can't decide how to proceed with the frame....
Barrels are 30" and chokes haven't been touched.
I researched the name of the man who ordered the gun and got a nice reference to him from an old 1900 newspaper article... See below.

Since these pictures were taken I have replaced the wrong hammer on the right with one that matches the left hammer.
