This site always amazes me. I came home the other day after looking at one of these guns and had some questions about it only to see someone had just started a thread. I don't want to hijack it so I stared this one. Walt, I saw that you said these guns started around SN 6550. This guns SN is 36342.It has twist steel barrels,engraving around the name NIG and the buttplate has 2 geese or ducks. Also on the reciever flat is marked A 12. The left hammer wants to engage even without the trigger being pulled. Would this be a difficult fix for a dependable gunsmith?Were there many of these guns made?
Thanks Tom

Your gun of interest is of 1899 vintage. A Quality is the bottom of the grade list. These guns are not particularly rare except for ones in very high condition. The repair you question should not be a serious problem for a competent smith

Thank you Mr Snyder for the information. This is not in that condition. It would be a shooter for sure. Barrels are very nice but the stock has some issues also.
