Here are a couple of pictures of a double 12 that was give to my older boy because of a lost fore end.
It is maked "made in Spain", "JANA - DENVER, CO.", "For 3" CARTRIDGES" and many proof marks.
On the top of each barrel, near the breach, there is a shield shaped crest with "LOYOLA" across
the top and what looks like two squirrels standing facing each other over a large cook pot
and a vertical line of bubbles from the pot to the bottom of the "Y" in "LOYOLA".
We have had no luck at all finding out anything that may help us with a new fore end
or even a similar fore end iron. Nothing current on JANA the importer, or LOYOLA in Spain.
It seems like a pretty nice gun except for this problem. We're at a loss.
Any help, suggestions, or fore end pictures would be appreciated before I
start reverse engineering.
