I've been trying for quite some time to figure out what this shotgun might be.
The photos pretty much sum everything up - does anyone have a reference for this one?
I believe it is a William Read & Sons Model DP2 from the common marking on the parts.. ..apparently sold in Boston / made in Belgium.
From what I can find on-line, William Read was a gun maker in Boston from 1826 until 1880.
Any ideas or information would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks!
