This shotgun is a black powder cartridge 20 ga. shotgun. Made by Otto Tauer on 31 in. Damascus barrels. The receiver is a back-action lock with exposed hammers. It is beautifully constructed with a Lefaucheux release lever and a second lever to disassemble the barrels from the action. Made with Belgium proof markings for black powder only. The gun is highly decorated with pounded silver wire decoration mostly intact. A shield with "HH" in silver is inlaid at the tang. HH may have done the silver work on this gun. The barrels are heavily patinated. The stock has been lengthened and the original butt-plate re-installed. No FFL transfer required. c.1880's. No sales to New York, New Jersey. California, and Hawaii. This gun is an antique and no attempt has been made to fire this gun to confirm its mechanical integrity. Nor should this gun be fired without the examination by a qualified gunsmith. Any attempt to fire an antique gun is at the risk of the owner and not consistent with the value of the firearm. 47.5 in. overall length on 31 in. barrels. Fair to good condition. Please see photos for details. [ Belgium
