I bought this a while back from a guy selling a collection. Sadly I know little about it and haven't had much luck finding info. What I've found is it appears to be a 1890ish Belgium made underlever. It's in working order. Does it look familiar to anyone? If not, got any good resources I can check out? Thanks

It does have wire wrapped barrels. The forearm is all metal.

Wire wrap barrels, do not shoot it.  I was warned many years ago, that wire wrapped or what I call damascus barrels are very dangerous with modern shells.  Otherwise, I have not seen one like this before.  Nice, I like old double barrels.

I have no interest in shooting it. I bought it to hang up. A couple weeks later my father gave me his old rabbit ear double 12. The guy I got it from was gifted it from his grandfather. It was a war prize gun that he brought home. That was all he knew about it. He had taken it to a show but found nothing. Everything I know came from the Internet and I'm not positive on any of it.
