This sadly relic W.C. Scott built Army and Navy 12 bore bar action hammer gun shows the W.C. Scott makers number of 36956 for 1885 on the front bottom rib.

The Birmingham Proof Marks are Pre-1887 format, but the word CHOKE appears on the same barrel as NOT FOR BALL, so there seems to have been some overlap.

It would be more helpful if I could be sure which way up the Army and Navy serial number is. 1609 or 6091?
