Hi, taking the gun off the black case and putting it on the lighter colored background would give us better pictures. That said, I agree with the other two that this was probably a common Belgium fowler imported and sold at hardware stores and through catalogs in the mid to late 1800's. Bannermans used to dig up inventory of these and sell them up into the 1950's and I think even Dixie Gun Works would occasionally have guns like this after that. You see them at gun shows for $200-400. Nice to hang over the fireplace and reminisce about your ancestors.
