By accident I have the start of belgian clunker collection. I found matching .410 and 28 gauge belgian hammerguns. I had to have them, as I already had the matching 12. All 3 in excellent condition with little to no use ever. For guns made in 1880's they are in remarkable shape.
.410 has 26" barrels
28 gauge 28" barrels
12 gauge 30" barrels
All have same pin placement, same hammers, most of the same markings, all have sling swivels etc.
.410 & 28 say Wm Parkhurst on 1 lock and machine made on the other. 12 has machine made but no Parkhurst.
I know that these are not particularly valuable, but does anyone besides me think that it might be pretty cool to track down a 20, 16, & 10 and have a complete set of clunkers?
Kinda like a collection of Ford Pinto's or Gremlins or Pacers etc. You get the idea. Just curious if I'm the only one to think this way.
