Need info on Wm Moore & Co percussion SxS - 08/03/11 11:55 AM
This was just passed down to a buddy of mine who is not much of a gun guy and he is seeking any info on it he can get. Like a lot of people these days he's hurting for money and might sell, but I'm hoping I can put enough history into the gun to make him want to hold on to it.
Marked "Wm Moore & Co." on the side and "London Fine Twist" on top. I'm told the ELG proof mark means is Belgium made.
It was his father's and before that his grandfather's and neither of them hunted or went shooting so it has been stored in one closet or another for 50+ years. From what I can see of the bores they are clean and smooth. It seems to function perfectly.
Any idea as to fair market value would be appreciated.
