Let us know what you learn.

It may be a gun turned out by some kind of gunsmith school????

It may be one of those antique road show finds..........

Ok, now things are making more sense.

It's a gunthat some one used to learn or to demonstrate the abilityto do fancy work. I'd say it's quite a piece. If it could be documented to the point where the craftsman/men were identified and they become collectible, which they may already be, it is a real find.

1 of 25, where are the other 25. A search and acquire would be a good collector's thing. Then when ya got'em all........who knows.

I'd put that thing in a glass case and milk it for all glory possible with friends and neighbors then when the Antiques Road Show comes by your town you could see if you make to a TV spot.

As far as trying to track them down ive been trying to find someone that has one that knows more and no luck:( as far as puting it in a glass case only if is has more security than my gun cabnet!)
