This is the story old Folsom arms Co. Stamped as such on the side SxS in 12ga 30 in barrels.Found by my parents 55 years ago.Looking to restore it,Missing forearm and right hammer.I am not going to fire any live ammo through the damascus barrels but if I can get it to look good I will probably purchase a pair of briley inserts in either 20 ga or .410 I realize that this gun is not very valuable but just trying to breath life into something that mom and dad found when they were first married.Thanks in advance for any help

folsom arms was a distributor name for shotguns made by cresent arms who trade named over 100 brands & could also be a belgium import by folsom....someone knowledgeable in this huge list could probably narrow it down...most likely for safety just a wall hanger...name started around 1892 & per mutated till it ended up in stevens factory around 1930's ..a very few models if exec condition might get around $900-1000 c to the right collector 0 -
Just for giggles and grins, look on the bottom of the barrels for any proof marks. I don't think that you will find any but you never know. H & D Folsome imported quite a few guns. 0
