Mike Burnett responded that this is one of Cyril Adams' guns - he will supply SN, name/address on the rib and patent use info this evening. Given it was a Cyril Adams gun, the barrels are undoubtedly intact.

This will be the third Cyril Adams Reilly seen recently. The two others have been pictured on DGS.
