    Automat. Pistole "Duo", F Dušek Opotschno, 6.35mm

    For anyone who is interested, here is what another gentleman sent me: " Your gun has been refinished. They have removed the round end of the slide lock, which you can see on the right side of the frame. It should have a raised rounded appearance, not flat. Also, here should be a serial number...

    Automat. Pistole "Duo", F Dušek Opotschno, 6.35mm

    Funny, I was on that site earlier today. I cannot tell if it has the same oddity or not. The gun in the video is not in near as good a condition as the one I have, and it just not discernable to me. The dimensions of the one I have is 4.5"x3"x3/4 with grip panels.

    Automat. Pistole "Duo", F Dušek Opotschno, 6.35mm

    I haven't shot it. I am selling it for a widow whose husband died and left her with his guns. The guy was in his mid to late 70s and had the gun for a long time. I know he did not refinish it; he did not have those skills.

    Automat. Pistole "Duo", F Dušek Opotschno, 6.35mm

    I don't think anyone "tried" anything. First, the whole finish is in great shape, including the internals and barrel; there is no rust or indications that there was a rust probem. Second, I don't think anyone could or would achieve such factory finish on a not-particularly-valuable gun and not...

    Automat. Pistole "Duo", F Dušek Opotschno, 6.35mm

    I have an “Automat. Pistole "Duo", F Dušek Opotschno, 6.35mm” made in 1941, and I have bit of an enigma to solve that may take an expert on wartime European guns. If no one on this site can help me, maybe somebody can point to someone who can. This Duo is in really great shape. Though it is...

    Evans & Co Chicago Break Action Shotgun

    Ash, do you know the model of your hammerless. Does the inscription say "J Stevens & Co" or "J. Stevens Arms and Tool Company"? Have you thought about having the parts fabricated?

    Evans & Co Chicago Break Action Shotgun

    J Stevens & Co Tip-up Shotgun I now know I have a J Stevens tip-up, single-barrel shotgun. Given the name on the barrel -- J Stevens & Co -- puts its year of manufacture between 1864 and 1886. After that, the company changed its name to J. Stevens Arms and Tool Company (1886-circa 1900). I...

    Evans & Co Chicago Break Action Shotgun

    So, disregard all above. I bought the gun off of an on-line auction site. Needless to say, their description was way off, to say the least. Turns out, the inscription says, J STEVENS & CO CHICOPEE FALLS MASS PAT SEPT 6 1864. Now the question is what model is it, assuming it even has a model...

    Lefever Nitro Special, Side-by-Side, 12 Gauge

    skeeziks. One more thing. I assume the short leg of the trip goes to the front and comes up under the barrel. What is “the button” in the water table?

    Lefever Nitro Special, Side-by-Side, 12 Gauge

    skeeziks. I am not real clear on your post. First, "the water table" confuses me; I don't know what is. Regarding the trip, is there a spring associated with it? If so, and I assume there is, how long is it, and does it do in the channel before or after the trip. It seems that it would go...

    Lefever Nitro Special, Side-by-Side, 12 Gauge

    1MOA@500, Thanks a million; I got the J-shaped device in place. I assume there was a spring under the device. Any idea what the device does?

    Lefever Nitro Special, Side-by-Side, 12 Gauge

    I have a Lefever Nitro Special, Side-by-Side, 12 Gauge that I am reassembling for someone. I have it back together with a couple exceptions, and I need some help. 1) There is a J-shaped device about 1/8 inch thick. Looks like it was fashioned (bent into a J) from the same material as the...

    How did I do-Ithaca M66 Super Single 20 GA

    Since someone reactivated the thread... In 1968, a man bought a 20 gauge, M-66 in response to the riots in New York; not much of a choice for a riot. In 1987, he was my neighbor in Virginia Beach, VA and he offered to sell it to me, along with the zip-up case he bought for it, the original box...
