Very nice. BTW, love the case. Have been looking for a nice doublegun leg of mutton case for years that will accommodate 2 sets of barrels . All the one's I've seen have been beyond used.

A very nice find, a time travel setup. Do you know anything of the original owner and its history?

I wish I did, but no. According to the card the gun was shipped on Nov. 30, 1912 to J.M.K. Southwick Estate. The gun was built with the 28" barrels; no mention on the card of the 30" unless it was one the back, which is why I asked on another thread if both sides of the cards are available. Both sets of barrels and the forends are numbered to the gun, and are marked 1 and 2. I have asked the seller if he has any additional information or knows any history on the gun but have not received a reply as yet.
