I have an English front stuffer as well, locks marked
"Hopkins" one bore proofed as 13, the other 14, barrels
30", rib marked London Twist, guns bores are amazing for
It's age, also wood being beech? But finely fit, oil finished
Which is original but I've polished it back up to its former
Glory, wondering if anyone has info on this maker
I shoot this gun on a regular basis
