Older SxS shotgun
« on: Today at 01:45:59 PM »
I inherited an older SxS shotgun and had been sitting in the safe for 10 years without much thought.  Any info on Joseph Butler from Chicago and SxS shotguns.  Older shotguns are not my thing so just looking for info.  Mechanically seems functional and all there, appears as a 12 gauge but not sure on chamber length etc.  any info is appreciated!

Historical Gunmaker Joseph Butler & Co.

There was a historical firm, Joseph Butler & Co., located at 179 E Madison Street, Chicago, Illinois, active from approximately 1870-1880. This company was primarily known as re-barrellers and choke borers but also made some guns, often on W. & C. Scott Actions.
