Rabbitear doublebarrel gun

Found an old gun in my mother-in-laws closet and was wondering if anyone could provide me some info to help me determine if I should restore it.
It has:
Rabbitears
Double barrell
muzzleloader
Wording on side that ends in LAND.


Thanks

You're going to have to do better than that. Good close, clear pics will help but most likely it's not going to be worth restoring. Those guns don't bring much

Rabbit ear gun is sometimes used to refer to exposed hammer guns.

Or maybe he found Elmer Fudd's shotgun. No, on second thought that would be a wabbit eaw gun. heh heh heh heh heh heh heh!
