Good morning folks
Im a actually somewhat embarrassed about posting this here .
But , I have a question that maybe some of you can help me with .
I took in as part of a trade a muzzle loading SXS .
Its not worth much but I thought I could use some of the parts and the price was right .
I do believe this was a piece made in Indian probably 1971
I also believe that the 113 is the serial # as every part is stamped with that number .
The marks are also all on the top of the barrels not on the bottoms .
Again im pretty sure these are marks from India . But I don’t show them in any of my books .
If someone here would have information on these , I would like to include this information in my resource books .
both breeches have what appears to be a Pottery on close inspection maybe a type of crown , with BP under it . then forwards of the breech is a wagon wheel with P under it . then the pot/crown again with BP under it , then a 16 inside a diamond followed by .662
both barrels are marked Not Nitro, 75 grain , 1 oz
now the left barrel says ;manufactured by S.Insaf Alissons Jodhpur
the right barrel says I.O.F. TESTED . Nos.113 English Barrel
the locks are marked S.I.S JODHPUR and carry the 113 on the inside
Again all the parts including the stock , are marked with this 113.
Again I know this is a piece of little to no quality . But im more interested in learning about the markings .
Thank you all for your time .
I hope you have a happy holiday season
