I looked at one over twenty years ago and it was a very high-grade gun, Jones underlever, nickle plated trigger-guard and locks. Marked on rib " C. F. Nason Lewiston M.E."

Reminded me of Joseph Tonks gun.

Charles F. Nason died 1909, worked at one time with Eastman 1896-1898.

Was active as early as 1859 and as late as 1902.

My notes refer to "Maine Made Guns and Their Makers" by Paul Plummer, 1973.
