I was handed a shotgun today that is a double barrel in two pieces... I don't know didly squat about old shotguns and was hoping someone here might know what this thing is. I did a google search..lol But came up with nearly nothing on it....
The stock and action looks to be in very nice condition. There is a stamping of "pattented 1872" then some two digit numbers in front of the trigger guard. Next it is stamped 34xxxG on the top which I assume is the serial and grade. It is marked "Lefever" on both sides. The stock appears to be a nice dark wood though old.
The barrels which I'm not 100% certain are a match to the rest of the gun is marked "laminated steel Belgium" between the two barrels and has fine checkering type work done the lenght of it...
I can take a few pics if someone has any knowledge of what this thing is or if it is just junk..
