8 Gauge
By popular request . . . a whole bunch of pictures of the 8 gauge. I also included a photo with my new 1 frame 12 gauge for comparison (I did get some that work too).
According to the Research Letter included, it was purchased by E. T. Allen of San Francisco. According to Google, he made hunting knives and ran an early sporting goods store in San Francisco. Whether this was his personal gun or whether it was bought for inventory, we don't know, but all of the repairs/alterations must have been done by someone with his metal working abilities. Very interesting piece of gun history regardless.
