Craig,
that gun is somewhat of a mystery, hoping to find someone who can tell me more about the gun.
It is a 10 gauge and the only markings are on the top rib, Lancaster Arms, Lancaster PA.

Lancaster Arms was the company formed by Alfred Harvey Worrest who patented the Infallible Single Trigger in the early 1900's. I have not found any evidence that he produced any firearms, I will post better pictures so hopefully someone can give clues as to who produced the gun. It has rather extensive engraving and is in great condition.
My interest was sparked because of my home being close to Lancaster.

Stan
