Very nice DonT,

Looks that the restoration was not abusive, again very nice. I think I have only seen them as being in a pistol grip configuration, very nice straight hand. I can only imagine what a fine companion it will be in your Iron Shield country..........I know I would love to walk those big woods with any firearm.

As to the question of calibers/gauges, I have seen a few listed over the years (never handled one) and they seem to be 12 and 16 gauge and all 2 1/2" chambers. Rifle calibers seem to be all the same "30/30" family....i.e..... 25/35, 30/30, 32/40 and 38/55.

I have not seen a 25/35, that is only conjecture, from the existence of one chambered to .257 Rob'ts. The 257 wasn't around when the company was a going concern. Ivory Beads Co. had it for sale and from what I gather it is in Montana and works well ..... ??? It was amateurishly refinished at some time and I would suspect rechambered then as well.
