Dbl Shotgun help
I am looking for any information, history, value, regarding a 12 Ga. double barrelled shotgun, with selective triggers,
The only identifying information on the gun is the name: "The Triangle Gun" and a symbol that looks like the same symbol used by company that manufactured Gresvic skis, which I believe was Sweden or Norway. The only other information is the number 0023 imprinted on the forarm and on the barrel under the forearm.
The shotgun is between 40 and 50 years old.
Appreciate any information

Can't find "Triangle" in any of my references. It might be what is called a "Store Brand" gun. These are shotguns made for a specific retailer, if the retailer ordered a certain number of shotguns. I've been told that all it took was for the retailer to pay for the manufacturer of the name stamping dies, which back in the days of cheap hand labor was just a nominal amount.

I seem to remember that they were made in Hungary but if there are not proof marks on the water table or barrel flats than I may be off base. 0
