Buzz, as I recall the gun records said it was sent to an American . I cannot remember if I got the records or the previous owner did. It is unlike the general Grant engraving, of course. -------------Later, I found that it was completed on July 15,1904, for F. C. Fowler Esq., USA. Described as having "special inlay engraving" top lever with cross bolt, half pistol grip stock, 12 bore, 28" barrels, and 2 5/8" chambers. Sold for 71-13-00 pounds, without the case.
In 1970 it was in the possession of H.G. Thatcher of the USA and in 1992 there was an inquiry from a prospective purchaser for 74xx. All of the info was courtesy of Douglas Tate.
