Picked this up in WV. Remington Single Shot 18 Gauge Shotgun

[rfdallas]

Picked this up in WV this weekend. I liked it a lot. Its only a wall hanger. Its an 18 Gauge Single Shot Shotgun. Cant get Ammo anywhere at all. Its in good shape and it could be fired. i think its about 1902 or about. Cant find anything on it at all. it does say Remington on it and 18 Gauge on the barrel. Any info will be nice.

Damn, that thing has so much drop in the stock I would have to turn it over ansd shoot it up-side-down! Yeah, Remington and some others made 18s. It was a carry-over from muzzle loader days, but iyt died pretty quick due to the 16 & 20. UMC sold shells for them into the late 1920s. Neat find.

That's got a whole lot of "Jed Clampett" coolness to it!!
