I recently acquired my great great grandfathers hunting gun and wanted to see if the experts can help with identifying some details.
Known facts:
Used while fowl hunting and guiding in the Barneget bay NJ
33” barrel
49” overall length
.875” inside diameter (both barrels)
Top has engraving worn down that appears to start with “REAL” then space some unidentifiable letters then ends in what appears to be “7X7”.
Underside of barrel has Belgium markings including 21.0 and NM
If any one can help with any details it would e much appreciated.
I am not try to get a value but rather fill in some details like what does the top engraving say and confirm the guage.
I know he was a well know guide and hunter who frequently was a hunting companion of Glover Cleveland. Would be cool to have some more details filled in.
Thanks in advance!
Todd
