Hi All , a friend had to take his original double barrel flint fowling piece into the police station for verification ??? , it was then transferred to police headquarters where it was kept for about 3 months before it was returned with both hammers broken and without the pieces as well , which could have been welded back on leaving no scars but no such luck and no apologies either , real vandalism of a family heirloom
