Well, here is the beast in all its glory, not a collectors piece but a shooter, which is why I would even consider doing the choke thing.
32 inch long barrels, .700" diameters at the muzzle edge both barrels.
Thank you Jerry for the link to the Rem. 1894-1900 series..........this shotgun has the floating firingpin and Q designation in front of the #365204 serial number, so according to the link it is a 1906-ish mfg. date.............a bit older than I had guessed.
If I get the thing successfully re-choked, I hope little brother enjoys it....................I'll call it my "getting divorced and being set free gift" to him. The wife is cutting the cord after 30 years and taking him to the cleaners. On the upside he was never been allowed to hunt because she wouldnt stand for it, now he has been set free and making up for lost time.............Don
p.s. appologies for poor photos, not much of a photog., using an older camcorder in still mode without much resolution.
