Lovell on both side plate and rif. Also stating "Boston Ma." and "Eureka Gun Fine Damascus". Then on another panel it says "England" so evidently John Lovell was an importer and had the gun imported from England as it does have English proofs. A pretty decent looking shot gun. The Damascus bbls are mostly a grey/brown. Still some pretty good finish on the side plates. 30" bbls. 2-1/2" chambers. Probably started out as a full modified choke slightly opened up. This is a 12 ga. Bores have scattered pitting and roughness. Overall good. Lock up has a slight wiggle. Good hammer and trigger springs. Forearm wood is above average for an old SxS. Butt stock is VG with the exception of a chip out of the pistol grip cap and 1/3 of butt plate missing. A shame since the butt plate is very ornate. Still a fine old shotgun and would look great in the den. Leroy Merz Antique Firearms specializes in antique and vintage Winchesters and other fine American firearms.
