August G Genez(French) worked in New York City from 1850's to
@1880. Thought by some to be the best American derringer maker.
Most observed Shotguns seen are Muzzleloader Convesions to
Pinfire with underlever. This is first I've seen that pinfire
or central fire could be used.1862-3 would be early for an
American conversion but certainly possible. Fine Family Heirloom.
