Description:
T. Barker "fine-Twist" 30" barrels produced in the late 1800's with ORIGINAL STOCKS that are in superb shape! I had a gunsmith tune up the hammers for fine shooting at the cost of $80. Locks up solid with almost zero play/less than a mm to the barrel/receiver. 2.75" chambers that I have fired Blackpowder substitute (Pyrodex) in MagTech Brass Casings with wax cap. AMAZING patterning shotgun - best I have actually even over my modern guns. Metal Buttplate, brass bead. This is a fantastic option for true traditional hunting with Dove, Quail, Chuckers, etc.   Shotguns marked 'T BARKER' are shotguns made by Simonis, Janssen, Dumoulin and Company of Liege, Belgium in the period 1883-1894.  In the US, they were sold by various hardware store and catalog stores. They were generally imported from Belgium and distributed by the H&D Folsom Co. The proofmark is the letter 'E' over 'LG' in an oval or variant thereof.  Please contact me with questions. I hate to sell this, but I've got college tuition to pay for my son. For payment, USPS MONEY ORDER ONLY and MUST be sent within two days of winning close - tuition is DUE ;-).
