I went to a Gun Show this weekend with a pistol I didn't like and ran into an individual with a shotgun that he didn't like so we traded. He got a $550 pistol and a $100 and I got what I thought was a very nice Browning Citori. Before this weekend I didn't know what a Superposed was.
When I got home I did a little research I found that I had bought a 1933 (or so) 12 guage Superposed in outstanding condition. I has a four digit serial number (4XXX), dual triggers, vent rib and is as tight as a new one.
So now comes my dilema. I bought what I thought was going to be my new dove hunting shotgun. Now, do I charge forward and subject this sort of firearm to mesquite thorns, prickley pear, dirt and sweat or should it reside in my safe until I die so my heirs can trade it for a pistol at a gun show?
I will be greatful for any information on the shotgun and advice on its ultimate fate. I've added a link to a couple of pictures of it. Naturally, the pictures don't do it justice.
Thanks, Jim
