Shotgun ID info, please
#259894 - 03/02/15 09:23 AM

Recently picked up a 16 bore SXS barlock hammer gun.

It has the following on the top rib - A.B.PER.K.PETERSONS EFFERTER IMP.
No other ID markings, no marks on lock plates.
The gun has Belgian BP proof marks.
So probably sold by a dealer in Scandinavia somewhere.

Anyone shed some light on the PETERSONS??
on EFFERTER IMP??
Thanks in advance

I found one hit from internet; It seems that this way named shop has located in Liljeholmen, Sweden and their business was selling shooting gear for Swedish shooters. There is a mention of 4 and 6 pages prochures from 1895 and 1897 in some library.

It could be interesting to see the Belgian proof marks, maybe you got something there that could give your shotgun an ID????? /Staffan
