A friend recently gave me this old shotgun. It is a 16 gauge. It’s got some nice engraving and the stocks, although well worm, at one time had some nice checkering. The guy who gave it to me got it in the early 70’s from someone who said they brought it back from WWII and that it came from France where “A gentleman used it to hunt fowl.” This gun had a sling attachment under the barrels that looks to have worn off. Now here’s the funny thing, from the time I was a kid I had always admired a Drilling my Grandfather had liberated during WWII. It was a double barrel 16 gauge, with a 7MM barrel underneath. It didn’t have a sling, but it was intricately engraved, both on the wood and metal and had silver inlays. He also had a very nice Carbine and Luger. Sadly, a meth addicted cousin piece of (well you know) hocked all three pieces in or near Perrysville Ohio, near Canton, Carrolton and such. Then on the day this one was given to me, the newest American Rifleman arrived and on page 100 is a gun very much like my Grandfather’s, except his had exposed hammers and I recall one of the hammers was missing. Anyway, back to this one I have. There are no markings on it whatsoever, no numbers, letters, not even something telling the gauge. Anybody out there have any ideas about what this could be? I’d sure like some info as this one, while not the same as my Grandfathers, will be right at home in my safe and always remind me of the one my Grandfather brought home from the war.
