This double barrel has been offered to me for sale. I have zero idea what I'm looking at, it's worth, rarity, or if its complete junk. Owner has never shot it and thinks it was made in the late 1920's, knows nothing else. Looking at it I'd pay no more than $100 for it on a good day. Anything you guy can offer is appreciated. If I did buy it I'd fix the left barrel firing pin which is MIA, may put a new stock on it and enjoy it. I'm assuming a decent gunsmith could fabricate/source the MIA firing pin?
There is extensive engraving from end to end. The stock doesn't have any obvious cracks but is severely gouged and very rough. Judging from teh rest of the gun I suspect is not original to the gun. The forend however is checkered from end to end and though old and weathered, in great shape. It appears to have been refinished years ago but the wood is in great shape, I don't think I have any pics of this.
The top appears to say "CLIMAX", the rest is a bit fuzzy. Hoping it makes sense to someone here.
The fore end looks exactly like the one at the top of this page
