Hi folks. This gun has an interesting and amusing (was, isn't now) story behind it. I bought it for 100. The barrels were in shocking condition with multiple pits and a horror story inside. On that basis I decided it was US and gave the stock to a friend of mine who wanted to learn how to checker. Several months later with the bits left in the safe a friend reckoned I should get it sleeved...so I took it to someone in the trade and decided that it wasn't worth the cost (1800 at least). However I took it to another barrel bore expert and he reckoned he'd have a go...anyway...got a phone call 2 days ago and it's passed proof! I nearly dropped the phone...he's now getting it re-ribbed for me and polished up...jees...better get that stock back asap....and now the bombshell...my mate had a go...and it's a horrible mess (didn't quite, but almost did, have the heart to tell him it looked like a 5 year old with a blunt spoon had had a go)..quite a bit of work to be done on the stock...take a look at the pictures...however...the locks are lovely and nicely made. It's a nice little 20 bore hammer which one sees too few of...

Can't start work until I get out of hospital (major lung surgery this Friday to remove cancer from my left lung) but on my return I shall start...cross everything as they say! :S

Here are the pictures...
