Is it possible that Nessonvaux was the barrel maker ? Another article says that's the name of a town.
Thanks Nick for your input on this thread! Nessonvaux is a town in Belgium.
I know who owns that gun (or at least one that looks just like it). He posted about it here about 5 years ago. I am going to email him to see if he wants to be outed.
ROMAC, it would be great if the owner of the gun would allow me to use images of it. Better yet, if he would be willing to have new photos taken of it!
President Arthur's gun is one that I included in my document. I was using images from Rock Island Auction's web site. They sold the gun in 2015. I called Rock Island Auction yesterday, asking for permission to use their photos. They were very nice about it and a few hours after my call, they emailed me large format image files of all the photos they had of the gun. I received permission from them to use the photos anywhere I wish to. How awesome is that!!
