I'VE HAD A 16GA DOUBLE FOR A NUMBER OF YEARS, I WOULD LIKE SOME HELP ID'ING THE MFG. THE ONLY MARKINGS ON THE SIDE PLATE ARE THE LETTERS- XLCR THESE ARE INSIDE OF A DIAMOND( <> ). IT'S HAMMERLESS, TWO TRIGGERS, THE FOREARM IS VERY MUCH LIKE SOME OLDER PARKER BROS SXS IV'E SEEN.
VALUE WISE, IT'S WORTH MORE TO ME AS A FUN SHOOTER. BARRELS HAVE BEEN CUT TO 18 5/8 INCH. WITH #1 BUCKSHOT THE RECOIL IS LIGHT, SLUGS FEEL ABOUT THE SAME AS A 45ACP.

I TOOK A LOOK AT THE PICS IN THE ARCHIVES, THE AREA AROUND THE STOCK IS DIFFERENT. MY RECEIVER( LACK OF A BETTER TERM) THAT HOUSES THE TRIGGERS AND FIRING PINS LOOKS LIKE WAS MADE OUT OF A SOLID PIECE. FROM THE SIDE THE STOCK MOUNTS FLUSH (ABOUT LIKE A REMMINGTON PUMP). PLAIN STOCK, NO CHECKERING.
I HOPE THIS MAKES SENSE. THANKS FOR THE EFFORT, BJ

BY GOD, THIS IS MORE FUN THAN E-BAY!!
I FOUND A COUPLE OF PICS OF CRESCENT-DAVIS SXS ON THE WEB. THE ONES I SAW WERE BOTH 12GA, BUT THE FEATURES WERE THE SAME( FROM WHAT I COULD SEE).
THANKS FOR TAKING THE TIME, I'VE GOT THIS WEB SITE ON MY FAVORITES LIST.

THANKS AGAIN, BJ
