Just run up to Jaquas in Findley and trade it for a Fox or Parker.

As has been mentioned several times. Gunsmith, mandrel or hydraulic dent raiser. Simple fast and far more economical than cutting. You'll likely never see the repair if done by a competent smith.


Trail cameras and fresh snow have broke a lot of trapper’s hearts.

But check the barrel and overal length first! You don't want to accidently create a short barrelled shotgun.

Don't forget the choke is on that portion of the barrel. I would: make a small anvil to fit inside the barrel and very carefully use a small hammer to tap it eyeball round, then shoot it to see what happened to the choke.

I don't. Only a person's names engraved on it. I can take a picture of the entire gun if that helps.

If it has no collectors value, might consider installing a screw in choke system.

It's a Belgium gun with damascus barrels. You should do some more serious research on it. And check, but I don't think its safe to shoot modern shot shells in it, they have too high of pressure for those barrels, if I recall correctly.

This is indeed a low end Belgian double with twist steel barrels. Not sure its worth fixing. Missing both hammers and no remaining stock finish. metal is also without finish. Please don't let anyone shoot it. Would make a nice wallhanger.
