Could you post the patent dates from the barrel? That will help a lot! The receiver number & barrel number almost never match on these. Often, the choke will appear as a letter by the barrel number; f = full & so forth. SW

the x's are too worn to read for my bad eyes.

These are the only marks I can find on the gun. Got from my wife's grandpa's estate. Just died at 90 years old in May.

Very clunky and unsafe feeling single barrel pump. Any info appreciated.
