NO RESERVE!! Here's an interesting single shot 12-gauge cartridge shotgun that was manufactured in the late 1870's or early 1880's by Hyde Shattuck & Co., Hatfield, Massachusetts. Known as the "American" model, it features a unique "trigger action" where the forward "trigger" is actually used to open the action. The barrel measures 30" in length and has a "Damascus" twist steel pattern. Overall condition is good and the gun functions properly. There are some replacement screws and all of the screw heads show buggering. There is a steel pin through the wrist of the stock, probably to repair or strengthen it. The metal shows plenty of patina and some light rust. The buttstock shows handling wear, scratches and dings but no apparent cracks. Made without forend. The bore is mostly bright but does show pitting throughout. The serial number, "788", is matching on all components. Hyde Shattuck & Co. was founded in 1875 and was renamed the C.S. Shattuck Co. in 1880. This shotgun would have been made within that approximate time frame. Although it does function, I would consider this to be a neat looking wall-hanger and is not warranted for shooting.
Buyer pays $25.00 shipping. This is an antique shotgun and as such, no FFL is required for transfer and in most areas it can be shipped directly to the winning bidder. There are exceptions (New York City, New Jersey, etc) where an FFL transfer may still be required. Please know your local laws before bidding. Bidder must be a minimum of 21 years old and willing to provide proof of age with payment.
