All Right!!!!
Finally,, I am at the top of something!
That's my little .410 at the top of the list and it is an odd ball gun. The stock is 15 5/8" of straight stocked, (no extension), walnut, the barrels are almost 28".
The gun is shade over 4 lbs. The proofs are early Birmingham .410, no C for cartridge (pre-1905?). It has spent it's entire life shooting off-the-shelf .410s.
When shooting, I tell folks, "think, Iver Johnson single shot, only welded together."
To shoot it, I use the Steve Cobb method of .410 shooting, hold way,,,way, out on the barrels to get leverage.
I have 2 other .410 sidelevers.
A .410 central hammer, sidelever, single shot, "Poachers Gun", (less than 4 lbs).
The coolest is an over/under, sidelever, central hammer, .410 w/
3" .410 UK proofs (whatever that equates to in the US.)
