OK I finally have them. The first is a double shotgun. The description follows:
Side by side
Double Damascus barrels.
Made by Manhattan Arms Co.
Serial # 552--
I don't know if it has much value, but it sure is pretty. Lots of engraving, and the parts fit together almost seamlessly. Of course, I know I cannot shoot it, but I would like to know a little more about it.
Second gun is a lever action rifle.
Octagon barrel,
Top of the barrel reads: "Winchester's repeating arms. New Haven Conn. USA - King's Impromvement patented March 29 1866, October 16, 1860-"
Close to the reciever reads "38 WCF"
On the tang "Model 1873"
On the bottom tang "415**B"
OK, there's what I have on it. The stock is interesting as it has a little hole to put bullets with at sliding door. The stock is in OK condition, but it is black, and there is an old repair to a crack on it.
Thanks for any info!
