My dad tells me this belonged to my Uncle. My dad got it after my uncle died and my aunt did not want it in the house with her two boys. The boys are now men and they would likely want it back and I will contact them and find out if they are interested in it.
I was just curious about what the brain trust can tell me about this spoon.
It says Crescent Fire Arms Co Norwich. Conn USA on one side and Peerless Model on the other side. It is serial number 272398 and numbers matching. The serial number is in several places and the number is the same.
I suspect this is mostly a wall hanger antique shotspoon of not much value. I would like to have the input from the brain trust to tell me more about it. About what year was it manufactured and approximate value. It is not going to be sold, but I wanted to tell my cousins something about the gun.
I do remember going rabbit hunting with my uncle back when I was about 12 and he carried that gun. I did fire it way back then but I don't expect to fire it again with modern ammunition.
