I looked the wood over pretty close and could not find any signs of repair. I took the screw out of the trigger guard and the stock is number 1199 the 30 inch barrels are marked 1199 as is the fore arm the 28 barrels are numbered 1199 with an X as is the fore arm 1199 with an X. The gun is tight the bores are bright and clean there are no dents in either set of barrels. It seems to fire with snap caps and funtion fine. I really can't find anything wrong with it except the recoil pad is dry and crushed a bit. Any idea of what kind of price I should put on it or just run it on GB and see what it brings. The fellow I got it from said he bought it at a local gun shop in the 50's and it came with both barrels.

My 2 cents is put it on Gunbroker starting at 1 penney and provide a boat load of pictures as well as all the appropriate measurements, such as barrel wall thickness, chokes, bore diameter, etc etc. If all that info is good, it will sell at a pretty good price. However, if it have problems then not so much.
