Well I do not claim to be an expert on English guns. The picture of the Hussey looks just like mine.All I know the barrel flats have Birmingham proof marks and fron what I can see they are from the 30's or 40's maybe later.
Now the maker's name is on the rib and real crisp, the barrel bands are real sharp as well. I would say my gun was made about 1914 as it has Hussey's last address on rib.Oh mine does have a leather pad, would be interested if the #1 gun does as well.It has the same finish as #1. I work at UNC Chapel Hill, bought it from Mid South. I was told a professor from UNC had owned the gun.
All I want to do is trade up to a little bit nicer gun. Mine is in excellent shape as is the 31 gun.
