Default CH Mills London Muzzleloader Shotgun - Help?

CH Mills HOLRORN London Laminated Steel (on the barrel)

Double Barrel Muzzleloader Shotgun

I just picked this one up today and can not find a single bit of information on it. Appears to be a 12 gauge blackpowder muzzleloader.

Can anybody out there please give me some info. or where to turn to for some info?

Many thanks in advance..... Paul

Photos are needed to identify what you have. No C. H. Mills is listed in Boothroyd's "Directory of British Gunmakers" If you can remove the barrels without damage, look for proof marks on underside.

It has Birmingham proof marks and is probably a 13 gauge, but don't recognize the other marks. ?H&S may have been the barrels maker. You might try posting at the British Gun Pub board:
