I think when Hoffman disbanded a lot of the stuff on hand went to pay the men leaving.

The serial number of this gun is right in the middle of the known Hoffman shotguns and only a few numbers from one.

The gun was finished in the USA, engraved by Kornbrath and it may or may not be stocked by Wright, I just can't tell.

The owner wants to restore this so I'll let the shotgun folks offer advise. It's had a hard life and IMO will take much time and money to put it back the way it was.
