Sure, when it comes to hammer guns made prior to WWI or earlier there is nothing else, but with the newer stuff I'm not so sure ........

You know, the ones with "hidden" hammers.
PS. I'm not talking about W&C Scott just SxS shotguns in general.

CJ, That's a nice weight for an 1 1/4 oz. gun. Mine comes in at
7 lbs 9 oz. Is the word CHOKE stamped on both barrels?? Curious to know if your right barrel has been opened up.It appears to have been built as a pigeon gun and if so would have had serious choke in both barrels.Mine did have but a previous owner opened it up to
10 and 25 thou which actually suits me fine as I mainly use it for sporting clays and occasionally for pheasants and ducks.Monte Carlo
B's were usually built as pigeon guns but could be ordered with game dimensions,chokes,brrl lengths and weight and in various gauges. A very nice find, enjoy. Terry
Better to keep your mouth shut and be thought stupid,than open it and confirm.

Terry the gun appears not to have been touched,...look at pic#9 the choke stamp is on the left bbl only,..it surpriced me as well I thought for sure they would both be tight.
Yes Frank Otte,...it's had a couple of less than desirable small repairs that I will address in time,...yeah,the wood is superb!
Will look after it!... for sure
CJ
The taste of poor quality lingers long after the cheap price is forgotten.........
