You're showing your age Agmen. xD

Sterlin, one of the things we made sure to do when we got the house in Oklahoma was to make sure it was a one story ranch. After climbing the stairs in this house, between the basement and second story, I'm not just showing my age, I'm FEELING my age.

Hell, my kids are older than probably half the people that play on here.

Oh god... The end of days... Agmen agreed with me.

Did a bit of research Agmen, apparently the rifle is an M1867 Krnka, manufactured by Tula Arms Plant. It was made around 1869 and used in the Russo-Turkish War of 1877

If you look here Mosin Proof Marks you'll see that Tula used the N proof mark. That arrow visible here - http://i48.tinypic.com/14siate.jpg - isn't Tula, it's Izhevsk. So it's possible that Izhevsk did some rework on it, to convert it into a shotgun. That's why I wondered what was on the barrel.

That breech mechanism definitely fits the Krnka ...

There were a lot of M1854 muzzle loaders which were later converted to the Krnka breach loader, my best guess is this was one of them
