My son-in-law came home with percussion rifle marked Hudson Bay Company. It has 2 barrels, both are marked Imperial No. 2, and the ramrod.

Does anyone know where I can find out the value of this piece. It is in very good condition. I have a couple of pictures of it, but can't figure out how to upload them to here.

Thanks,

  More then likely it's a shotgun rather then a rifle. Hudson Bay Co. was a commercial organization that was in business for many years in Canada, primarily in the rural areas. Not likely they actually made the shotgun, probably it was made for them to sell by one of their many vendors/subcontractors.
  
  By taking Henry's advice re the quality photos, it would be the best way to identify and value the shotgun.

  Probably a Belgian made shotgun. Anything "Hudson Bay" or "HBC" has collector value. COndition is the determining factor in total value.
