my first gun I asked for information about was a Browning in this post

The next one is a

Lyon & Lyon, London & Calcutta, 470 3 Cordite, side lock hammer double rifle.

I picked it up at gun show in Roanoke VA. It was in pretty rough shape. The dealer (I forgot name) would not provide any history as per the estate he was selling it for. I had it refurbished by Mr. Eggleson (sic), Columbia SC around 1991. I am hoping someone here might have some information about this Gunmaker. After Mr. Eggleson made the missing firing pins, one of the hammers and whatever else it needed, he sent it off to be re case colored. I cannot recall who did it, but I do recall Mr. Eggleson saying I was lucky to have them do it. The rifle was then cased by Huey. I did shot this gun a lot when I got it back. I was intrigue by varying loading to establish the barrel regulation. If I am not dreaming this, I think I got some 300 grain Wildey pistol bullets to shot on target.

So any information on this rifle and estimated value would be greatly appreciated.
