Hello Wayne59.

This shotgun was sold in the 1890's by Frank Percy & Co. (1872-1913) in Oshkosh, Wisconsin. The business successor was Dunham-Fulton Gun Co. Although there have been a few single shots known in 20ga, 16ga, and 12ga, and a few doubles in 12ga, this is the only known 10ga double with the Oshkosh Name.

In addition to Sporting Goods, Frank Percy's Co. was a Hardware Store. He bought guns from various Companies over the years and used the Trade Brand Name; "Oshkosh Arms" - "Oshkosh Trap Gun" - "Oshkosh Field Gun" - etc.

Most guns were made by Forehand Arms Co., and a few by others such as Harrington & Richards, Stevens, etc. This particular 10ga was made by "H. Pieper / Leige" as reflected by their Logo on the hard rubber Butt-plate. It has Belgium Proofs throughout. It is above average quality with Horn Forend Tip, Doll's Head Rib Extension, Matted Rib, Rebounding Hammers, and Dainty Engraving.

Since I grew-up in Oshkosh, it had to be collected. I have 3 other single shots with various Oshkosh Names. Two in 12ga, and one in 16ga.
