Thank you but I do not have the right to shoot it, let me explain.
I say that I'm 4th in line to receive this LC. When it was handed down to me it was just an old shotgun that was in the bedroom closet getting ready to hit the garage sale.
Fact is the Great-Great Grandson of the original buyer doesn't know I have it, he's 6 years old.
I am outside the blood line due to marriage and have a Grandson of my own but The LC doesn't belong to us. When the original owner's GGSon becomes of age I want to hand this to him with as much documentation of the LC and his GGGranddad as possible. If not, history is lost and the GGSon denied.
Is there a way to know what serial number was the first .410 or a way to know which number such as 23rd or 202nd of 331 in 1926? It would be interesting to know since this was the first year and unfortunately the Auth letter doesn't mention it.
Any assistance anyone could muster would be greatly appreciated.
