Unknown shotgun

wegrider
Hello,

I have a pump-action 12 gauge with a multiple choke changer. The only I.D. on it is TRULINE DELUXE FROM EATONS. Looks like a Mossberg. The choke at the tip of the barrel says, MAGNUM MASTER SHOOTER. I heard that Mossberg had made a line of these (throw away shotguns) I do appreciate it, If you could help me out in this. I am in search of the full breech that is inside it. It was cheaply made with white metal. The one inside is broken.

Thank you.

    I received a muzzle loading double barreled shotgun from my grandfather's estate. It uses firing caps that fit over a nipple. It has the word "Parker" engraved on both side panels just above the triggers.
    I can not find anything that resembles this gun in any literature or books that talk about Parker shotguns. In fact they seem to all say that all Parker shotguns are of a breaktop style, which this one is not, and that they are engraved with text that states the guns were made for Chas Parker. There are no serial numbers visable, and no other markings. I assume this gun was manufactured on or before 1860, but can not be sure.

    Can you give me any information, I could email photos of the gun if that would help.

    Here is a photo of the barrel engraving that I found after removing the barrel. It does appear to have the "ELG" markings along with a number that appears to be "186", the initials J.V, a "N" with a star above it and a "T" with a star above it. It also has the number "4" on each barrel along with a "44" on the underside of the barrel below the small site. Hope this helps.

    Thanks again.

    That should help a little...

    Post some clear pictures of the bottom of the barrel and the inner flat of the receiver.

    I had a "hibacht" double barrel 20ga shotgun I took in trade a few years ago. (15 or 16 years ago) If I remember correctly they were a Spanish make shotgun. It appeared to be well made and I know the guy I sold it to still uses it for grouse hunting every year. Also if memory serves me correctly they were middle of the road as far as quality goes. Not a cheaply make double, but not an extremely well make one either.
