J R Evans Double Barrel - The Firearms Forum

I was looking for information on a J R Evans Double Barrel 12 gauge. It has London Fine Twist down the top between the barrels. Looks like it's in near mint condition. Supposed to have been made in the 1870s.

Hi Rockh0und.....welcome to TFF.

I've searched my reference materials and the internet and haven't been able to come up with any information on the manufacturer.

However, there is a J.R. Evans shotgun listed on GunsAmerica Classifieds:

Perhaps if you contact the seller, he might have more information on it.

I had found that one too. That was the second place I looked right after *********. That one is a "London Fine Damascus" though and this one's a "London Fine Twist" I know the difference in how they're made I was just wondering about value and some info on the maker.

Thanks Anyway.
