doublegunshop.com - home Forums General Discussion DoubleGun BBS @ doublegunshop.com Value of a Maloch & Michie 20 Ga. hammer gun

I am trying to put a value on a Maloch & Mitchie 20 ga. hammer gun. Any inputs would be appreciated. The following is a description of the item. I have several pictures but I see no simple way to add them here based on the constraints of this web site.

The gun is a breech loading�sxs�20 gauge, serial #945,�made by Maloch & Michie. The name is engraved on the sides among the scroll pattern.�There is a stamped�reference to an 1871 patent.�The weight is about 5 3/4 pounds. It has 29" barrels bored skeet and full. It is likely that the butt plate is wood�and the wood�splinter stock are�each�original. �The main stock is probably redone. It is bored for 2 1/2 " shells and while you cannot see the telltales of Damascus barrels, it has Birmingham proof marks providing a 'definitive black powder proof for shotguns'. The barrels are stamped 'not for ball'.�Also stamped is '18 B 21 M' on the top of the barrel.The bores are like new.�

Hi Shooter 76. You will probably get more input if you place this post in the main Double Shotgun forum instead of here in the Double Rifle forum.

Just choose your image(s), and after it is uploaded, use the "hotlink for forums" and insert that in your reply. Takes well under a minute once you do it a couple times.

OK. Thanks for the input. Looks like I need to figure out how this place is set up.
