I posted a few links to pics. The gun was brought back from WWI in 1918 so the window it was made is pretty slim. 1891 from Patent, to 1918 at the very latest. Just an interesting gun and wondering if they are a dime a dozen in this setup, or how rare is it.

I would say pretty rare. Most interesting inletting or sculpting of the frame on the A&D Body Action. Pattern welded tubes, so that too dates. it. Lovely wood with Ebony inserts @ the rear of the Church Windows.

2021 Durama, The photos wouldn't open for me. The mark 64/49 (guessing the 9 misread as 7) is the bore (not groove or bullet) diameter expressed in gauge measurement. This works out to 10.41mm and the nominal caliber might be 10.75X whatever the case length is in mm. Mike

>>2222<< and >>124<< are the makers serialization and the firearms merchant's serialization.
That frame filing is just spectacular.
