IP Barrel marks
      #55604 - 24/04/06 02:12 PM

Hello,
I have the pleasure of owning a JD Dougall 12 bore which has wonderful "Highest" grade damascus barrels marked IP. I assume that these are the initials of the barrel maker.
In the DGJ issue dated Autumn 1997, Ross Seyfried described a Dougall Howdah 16 bore double rifle which has the same markings.
The vintage of my shotgun is 1875.
Would anybody know who was this IP?
I could not find any obvious match in Nigel Brown's books.

Thank you,
WC

Get an image of that barrel mark up here on the thread.
That'll help any of us who might have a chance to identify it.
