I thought the Ithaca guys (and maybe a few others) would enjoy the pictures of the engraving on a Flues 3E 10ga made around 1913. Haven't done much to it yet, a bit of light surface rust on the action and I want to go slow to preserve as much of the C/C as I can. It also looks like the stock is cracked internally, note how it fits at the action on the left action picture. This thing is a cannon, weighs 10 ½ lb w/30” barrels. Serial # 230274. Bores are decent and everything works ejectors and all. It has the usual strange looking duck on the trigger-plate, but take a look at the dogs! Anyone recognize the engraver?
