1880 ? shotgun help

PGA Jeff · March 10, 2005, 11:26 PM

I have recently purchased an old black powder shotgun. I have no idea as to its age or make. I am a novice. I need some help
The barrels are 33" long. There is a worn silver shield on top of the stock about two inches below the hammers. On the side of the gun under the hammers is a bumble bee with outstretched wings with a "D" on one and a
"L" on the other. Any help would be appreciated.

Here are some pictures. As I said, the barrel length is 33", if I measured correctly.
