A couple of things that seems, for lack of a better word, different on this rifle is the use of a hook on the barrel but retained the military swivel on the rear. The other thing that I have not seen before is the shaping of the forend leaving some of the grasping groove. Anything else that stands out? MP Sadly Deceased as of 2/17/2014

The forend checkering with the two panels pointing up seems a little different to me as well. I just can't remember this pattern on other stuff. MP Sadly Deceased as of 2/17/2014

The long checkering down the belly reminds me of a mid 19th century English gun. The butt looks short too, which may accentuate the length of the checkering. Does it have a particularly short pull? _________ BrentD, (Professor - just for Stan)

Are you interested in the "...1910 Paul Wolff conversion for Merritt Adamson.." that is shown on page 93 in the article by Jack Lott? Let me know how I can help. Lou M If it weren't for the wonder of electricity, you'd be reading this post by candle light!
