Please go here for pictures. http://spaces.msn.com/lincolnrobert/

Click above picture on arrow and select FLINTLOCK:jaw:

I got these guns from my father. He was a advid collector and hid these away from the rest at a different location. There must be a reason why. I am not moble and live about 50 miles from nearest gunshop. Your help is all I have right now.
Thank you, ROBERT

INFO:
VERY LITTLE TYPE
DUAL BARRELS
FLINTLOCK I THINK
WOODEN "RAM ROD"
2 TRIGGERS
I GUESS ITS A MUZZLE LOADER?

PRINTING:
LAMINATED STEEL ON TOP BETWEEN BARRELS
MOORE AND CO. ON METAL IN CENTER OF GUN STOCK

WOULD LIKE TO KNOW WHO MADE IT, MABY ALITTLE BACKROUND, WHAT IS IT, AND APPROXIMATE VALUE.

THANK YOU VERY MUCH!
:cheer:

From the pics i saw, it looks like its percussion cap fired instead of flintlock. Sorry I can't help more.

You have what appears to be a Percussion Double barrel Muzzleloader shotgun ! (NOT a Flintlock !) What does the Bore measure ???
What condition is the bore in ? It is really hard to value a piece like That without hands on inspection !
