I just acquired a very nice Meriden 12 ga. with ejectors and some engraving on the sides of the action. The serial number is 55063. The gun has engraved on the rib Patent 1907. The barrels are marked Flussstahl Krupp Essen. The gun is in very nice condition and I believe it to be a 2 3/4 inch 12 gauge but I intend to shoot 2 1/2 inch shells in the old girl....just to be safe. Can anyone shed any information regarding date of manufacture and whether the gun is indeed chambered for 2 3/4 inch ammo. Finally, any info on Meriden Firearms Company and what models produced, etc.
