I have a 410 ga pistol that the name Essex on it. The frame is nickel plated and has a large SX engraved on the sides. It has an exposed hammer. The serial #17325. It is marked 12mm choke.
I would like to have any info I can get on it i.e. age, origin, value.

Is the barrel rifled? How long is the barrel?

It is a smooth bore approximately 10" long. I don't have it here, but I can check the barrel length and let you know if you like.

Don't bother. You need a stamp from ATF to own that gun. If it does not have a stamp, you can not get one.

Thanks, Pete. I didn't know that. How do I get a stamp?

Dave,
you would need a time machine to go back to 1933 and get a stamp.
Find a very deep body of water,separate the barrel from the gun and deep six it.Not worth 10 years in prison

Why is it any more illegal than a Thompson Center Contender in .410?
It may well be a pre1898 gun and exempt from almost anything.
Just speculating here, but I don't know of a no-shotgun pistols allowed rule. Seems like the LeMatt revolver fall into this too and I believe there are others.

Brent, the Thompson and Lematte both have a trace of rifling in the bore and shoot 45 long colt which is legal.

The Lematte is rifled? Not an original so far as I know. Why the issue with rifling? I know the BATF isn't logical, but they at least try to fake it. This one looses me. I think there is a .410 modern revolver out there. I don't believe it is rifled either but could be wrong (the name Thunderer comes to mind for some reason)
Apparently Thunderer is not right. Not what I was thinking of.
