Nice single. I have a W&C Scott from 1872 8 gauge that is similar in form but very different in details. I is a light waterfowl model, no choke and the barrel and action appear to be much more massive than your gun. It weighs just shy of 10 lbs.
Nice looking guns Mike. Would like to see a video of the 20 ga cane firing. I first thought the 10 bore might originally have been pinfire because of the explosion motifs but not so.
It was originally proofed between 1875 and 1887 ("Not For Ball") and reproofed between 1954 and 1989. Others might add more.
