I have a copy of "Two Shots" Multi-Barrel Long Gun Patents and their Inventors by Larry B Schuknecht.The only patent he lists for Aug 12, 1884 is #303411 issued to H Allender of Detroit MI. It is stated to cover Hammerless Cocking Mechanism, Lock Up, Single Trigger & Safety. Have not looked it up to see if it looks applicable to this gun or not.
