Ted, did you get your question answered??
Mike
It was 'sorta rhetorical, Mike. The gun is missing any kind of grade marking, and combines features from at least three different patent Darne designs, and at least one trick (the tab to release the opening lever) completely unique to this individual gun.
LeRoy Merz has a very similar gun listed on Guns International. Of course, there are no pictures of the flats of the barrels, or, the side of the gun where the intersting and different tab to remove the breech block would be.
Is there a school that dealers go to to learn to take photos that provide little hard information about used guns?
I wonder.
Best,
Ted
