Antique Side-by-Side Double Barrel Percussion Shotgun, unmarked as to maker but possibly American, NVSN, 12x12 ga., 36.75'' barrels with stub front and no rear sights, two silver bands on full-length top rib at breech; lockplates and hammers are floral engraved, as is the triggerguard, with pineapple front and long rear tangs, top tang of the shotgun buttplate, and bottom pineapple ferrules retaining the hardwood ramrod; a single barrel key with two oval German silver escutcheons; hardwood halfstock is checkered at wrist, with vacant German silver nameplate on bottom. Condition is about good, appearing original. Metal surfaces show a twist pattern and a darkened gunmetal color with scattered erosion and dings from use and age. Stock is sound with worn checkering and a 1''x1/2'' chip at right buttplate area (possibly a fault in the wood grain). Actions work smoothly and well; bores show black powder erosion but are clean. Est.: $200-$300. (Antique)
