Hello! One of your members suggested I ask my questions in your forum because of the knowledge base here...so here goes.
My brother in law recently purchased a shotgun and was offered six hundred dollars for it and that has made us curious to the actual quality and value of the gun. I have found a little information on the gun from the internet, but not much very helpful. Here is the information that is on the shotgun, on top of the barrels...
G.Defourny Sevrin
10 gauge Magnum Nitro Proof
Made in Belgium For Continental Arms Corporation New York
It is a side by side and has a double trigger, which I've read makes it a Centaure. It has ornate scroll engraving over all the metal except the barrels, even the screws...and the metal looks more like a dull silver, not 'blued' like the barrels. There is no animal or scene engraved, just the 'swirly lines'.
Can someone tell us the ballpark year of the gun, the quality, and the value? Thank you in advance for your help.
