Fulton Arms Co. stamp on barrel extension
Posted by Marvin Underwood on February 22, 2019, 8:58 am
I have a 20 gauge No. O with 26 inch barrels made October 9, 1907. My question relates to the Hunter Arms Co. stamp on the barrel extension. It appears to have been double stamped with a slight offset. It is almost like the initial stamp was not clear enough and someone tried to stamp over it and did not quite match the initial stamp. My specific questions are: Has anyone ever encountered this on other L. C. Smith shotguns?, Does anyone have a theory on how this might happen? Any comments are appreciated. Thanks. MU
