Trying to enhance the right barrel but losing detail. The small scroll in the middle is clearly a ribband edge; the question is every 3rd and 6th

Drew - I'll do the best I can with my iPhone later this evening.

Franc - Yes, this is a George Gibbs 16 ga. More pix to follow when I figure out the posting process. Might as well bite the bullet on that and get smart. I went to the effort/expense to "refresh it" after shooting it on White Wings last year. After 2 birds, it was "what hammers???"

THE BARRELS ARE INDEED 6 IRON. First British gun I have seen with 6 Iron barrels. Maxey has found no maker's mark.



5 full size scrolls (with zipper welds) between two 1/2 scrolls with straight weld lines (ribband edge)

I'd like to thank everyone for the help on this thread, especially Drew and Leighton along with a few PMs I received. This is one of the great things about this forum. Shot the gun today; what a treat! Forgot in the span of 7 months how much fun it is! Will post "the rest of the story" next week.
