Re: DBBL Identification
James, how do you know that one barrel is choked ?
It can`t be a `Coach` gun because it is far too late - unless made for the American market ( which is unlikely ) and I suspect that the barrels have been cut back
Pictures would help with identifying the gun.......including the proof marks on the barrel flats and breech end of the barrels - and any marks on the action flats. Just because the gun has Enos James signature on it doesn`t mean that he was the actual maker.
