On the bottom of the barrel flats:
PAT'D Apr. 12 187?
"2" on the rear lug - frame size I suppose
"J" below and left of the hook on bottom
"D" below and left of the J
and big 5 little 7
There is an "x" on the lug for the forearm.
Damascus barrels,and they are an even 28". They ring like a bell.
Capped pistol grip and haed and chest of lab on point buttplate with peak on the top of the buttstock. 1 7/8 dac, 3 1/4 dah, 14 lop.
I hope I am right on the patent dates. They were very small. Does the above info. sound right for this gun?
