.400 and .500

The bushings are a repair, the plates are blued and the action is case cloured.
The engraving on top or the fences does not continue onto the plates.
I have now seen 3 other trade actions, that have the same distinct side bolsters.
(a Lanacster, an Osborne and a Lawn & Adler )
All of those guns did not have the plate style bushings.
I have seen original guns with this style bushing, so the repair was done by someone knowledgable.
I would love to be able to send it to JJ or someone for inspection, just not possible.
It's a sh*t or Git type situation, and if the price is right, we can fix almost anything.

Wish me luck !

The flats definitely had a V, CP, 450EX marks, right where the barrels go into the lumps,
there was another mark (very difficult to read)but on the barrel.
I think this was the GP Proof in script.
Does this follow your experience ?

On this thread you can see the marks on the barrel, same as the Lyon & Lyon except no NP.

Thanks
