Description

Grandpa had a lot of pictures of him with this gun. I guess it must have been pretty special to him. It wasn't there and I never seen it in person so I guess he either sold or traded it... or it was stolen.
Thing is... I know absolutely nothing about that rifle. Anyone know anything?

One thing about my grandpa is that he was a master marksman. He had a lot of awards given to him by the military for his marksmanship skills. There were some that he hit 100% from so many yards away. He was a trick shot, too. Over decades and decades he'd shoot cigarettes out of people's mouths. If the person was too shy he could shoot it from their fingers. He nicked a person's finger one time, other than that he was perfect.

This looks like a homemade, barebones shotgun. It would be very light, easy to swing and follow a target. The recoil would be a bit heavier, but that would mean little to a marksman. The assembly on front is a personalized version of the type of sight that aids in shooting airborn targets. I imagine he built this to specifically fit himself. Very creative. :)
