Crooked River Pete, SASS 43485 Posted July 20, 2023 Posted July 20, 2023 Any body know of a shot gun marked EGD? Older make, seller says its made in italy
Alpo Posted July 21, 2023 Posted July 21, 2023 Personally, I would suspect that EGD are the initials of the first owner of the shotgun.

Sedalia Dave Posted July 21, 2023 Posted July 21, 2023 If it was made anywhere in Europe there will be proof marks on the barrels. Those will often reveal the maker.

Chantry Posted July 21, 2023 Posted July 21, 2023 Found the Armslist ad (I have zero interest in O/U's). Based on the three pictures there really isn't a way to identify the maker With the caveat that the other two pictures weren't very good and that I'm not going to log into Armslist to read the description, my GUESS is that this gun isn't anything special or worth a lot of money. With better pictures, including the the underside of the barrels and the outside of the barrels where one expect markings, I might change my mind. Personally I would be skeptical that the seller was unable to provide more information as to the maker or better pictures.

I wasn't realy interested in buying it, I just couldn't find any info on the gun and that got me interested in who made it.

That was my guess too. That's why I didn't go look at it. 10 minutes ago, Chantry said: Personally I would be skeptical that the seller was unable to provide more information as to the maker or better pictures. I asked for better pictures but the add has been pulled, probably sold it. A lot of people aren't "gun" people and don't know what to look for, they are just selling grandpas old gun. When he said the barrels were 24" I figured it was cut down so lost all interest, just want to know who made it.
