This was my grandfathers- He did a lot of overseas traveling in the navy (seabee's)
Can anyone make out what this engraving says- or what any of the markings on it mean? Serial # is 30101
I'd love to know the manufacturer. I did take it to dealer, left it there for a week for him to study it-
he said he had no idea, but that it may have come from one of the many gun smiths in europe who make guns.
Personally, I feel like it looks more domestically made- but I have really no clue.
He said it appears my grandfather had someone put the rubber on the butt.
The shotgun is in beautiful shape- and I've fired it many times. I have no desire to sell it, figure I'll keep it and hand it down to my kids.
it might just be me, but it sure feels like it kicks a lot more than my 12ga mossberg!
thanks for looking!
