English Made? F.A. Loomis. SxS Shotgun

That's going to clean up real nice baker.
Someone's been in it before, as evidenced by some of the buggered screw heads. Perfect timing too as I'm going through my first SxS. Misery loves company. Hollar if you get stuck since I was probably stuck there too. Do be careful though, or quickly you will find yourself contemplating taking on many more of these.

Appreciate the office of help, might take you up on that. This SxS is a Black Powder shotgun. A collector of such art told me that the English Black Powder Proofs show it is a post 1887 shotgun 12ga. with a 2 1/2" chamber. I've already been bit my the SxS bug, this is my 3rd I have a Savage and a Baker that need more TLC then this one.
