I just inherited this shotgun (I refuse to call it a "shotty"). My oldest brother brought it to me this afternoon. My dad got it from his best friend as a kid and a young man, and it had belonged to his father. From the serial number, I would place it mid to late Twenties. It probably hasn't been used it thirty years, but my brother said he got his first six Chuckers with it on six straight shots.

It has wear, and a small chunk missing from the base of the stock by the buttplate, but I wouldn't change a thing.
