muzzle loader

[Gary Reif]

Can anyone tell me where I might find info on an old double barrel muzzle loader shotgun? I got one from a relative this past weekend, it has what looks like gold inlay of KULIK EN BRUNN ON it, but I can't seem to find anything on it. It is rusty so the best I hope to do with it is to make a wall hanger out of it. I'm sure it was a beautiful gun when new it has alot of scrollwork on it and I hope to be able to clean it up. I don't know alot about guns like this so any help will be appreciated.
Thanks
Gary

Rum it down with 0000 steel wool and some motor oil. If there is no pitting you will be amazed how much better it will look. the 0000 steel wool will not harm the blueing. Be sure to make sure it is not loaded by running the ram rod down the barrels and comparing to the outside. Post some photos! Gary P. Hansen
