    Default $50 Debt

    I was given this gun last night to settle a very small debt. Fella didn’t know anything about it, but I don’t think I lost anything on the deal.
    From what I’ve read, it’s a 16 ga sxs manufactured by Gaspar Arizaga and produced post 1931.
    Proof mark FN

    Proof mark 3rd from bottom

    From this picture I took last night, I think I can make out an ‘M1’ marking, indicating a date of 1967.

    Proof mark of Eibar Proof House Impressed on all arms
    Voluntary black Powder proof of breech-loading barrels (what’s the 2 for?)
    Compulsory Smokeless Powder proof of breech-loading smoothbore firearms
    Inspection of Ammunition
    During the 1950’s, there wasn’t a huge demand for high end sxs, so Spanish manufactures filled this void with their lower end and lower priced sxs. I know this gun wouldn’t bring much, but do you think it’d be worth getting refurb’d?

    Clean it up but don't refurbish it. Any value it has is in the condition and patina it has now. That gun looks a lot like a Fox I have.
    Yeah, but do you consider a dog to be a filthy animal? I wouldn't go so far as to call a dog filthy but they're definitely dirty. But, a dog's got personality. Personality goes a long way.

    there's very little patina...looks like he took a buffing pad to it; swirl marks on the barrel.....and unless i can find a breakdown of it, i'll probably take it to a smith to recock and reassemble.....i made the mistake of taking the pins out last night and cannot get them realligned
