Yes that is a Daw under lever. It is a nice original gun made in 1867. That may not sound early to some, but that is an extremely early cartridge firing shotgun when most everything of that era was still percussion.

George Daw owned the patent on outside-center primed cartridges which at that time was innovative to enclosed cartridge firing guns. I got it because of the absolute elegance of this gun. It has been a pleasure to own and shot...
