INTERESTING Hopkins & Allen FALLING BLOCK Shotgun
Made Circa 1900 in Norwich, Connecticut C&R
Here we present a Hopkins & Allen Falling Block Shotgun, manufactured in Norwich, Connecticut circa 1900. This design utilized the falling block action which was very popular in the mid-to-late-19th Century, made especially famous by Christian Sharps with his rifles and carbines around the time of the Civil War. This would have been a working man’s hunting shotgun for fowl at the turn of the century.
The top of the barrel is marked “MADE BY HOPKINS & ALLEN MANFG. CO. NORWICH, CONN. U.S.A.”.
The overall condition is good. The metal surfaces are dark with age. The markings are clear and legible. The bore is clean and fairly bright with light shallow pitting throughout. Front sight bead is absent. The stock is in good shape with some handling marks. The butt pad is a later addition. The action on this shotgun is strong.
This firearm is classified as a Curio & Relic.
Barrel is 30-1/4 inches.
Caliber: 12 Gauge
Overall condition as seen in photos.
