John Dickson 500 BPE hammer gun

Hello All - I've just come to own my first double rifle, a John Dickson hammer gun, proofed as a 39 bore, so presumably 500 bpe, but haven't yet cast the chambers. Jones under-lever.

Serial is 3717, and this came out of a collection that stopped adding new pieces by 1965. Condition is rather nice, with 80% engraving coverage that's still quite crisp. Barrels may have been re-blacked.

I'll try posting an image using Google for hosting. I'd be grateful if you could tell me if this worked for you (I loved photobucket but haven't signed up for their new fee schedule.)
