Guns Like firearms themselves, there's a wide variety of opinions on what's the best gun.

I have this old gun.

You must be spot on as I can't think of anything I've ever seen or heard of that has this set-up, and the internet showed me the same thing you mention now that you did the detective work.
A professor once told me that it's not what you know that makes you intelligent, but rather the ability to research what you don't know.

Applied to me, that means that without Google, I'd be dumber than a fence post.

Here's a few of the links I found after driftrider solved the puzzle, .. in the second link after opening it go down to the 3rd post by Jim Keenan
On the 5th link make sure you scroll to the top of the page to see a good pisture of a weapon .. maybe it will look a bit like your gun

I am sure that is the right type of ammo. The gun looks alot different though. I will need to do some more searching to find it.
