I am looking for some information on the following double barrel shotgun.
It was made by the Bridge Gun Co., it is a 12 guage, has 30 inch barrels, it has exposed curved hammers, the SN is 19407. It also has "Belgium Laminated Steel" stamped on the rib between the barrels.
There are several proof stamps on the underside of each barrel.
When and where was this shotgun made?
Approximate worth is ?

This is one of many Begium shotguns brought into this country at the turn of the century and sold in most hardware stores. It's worth is as a wall hanger and should never be fired with modern smokeless powder loads. It has damascus "laminated" barrels.
