Old Side By Side

[geesenest]

I have an old Remington shotgun my grandfather left to me. It is a 12 gauge side by side, both barrels being full choke, I believe. The barrel length is 30 inches and the overall length is 48 inches. The serial number is 303975, stamped on all pieces. There is another number stamped on the barrel and the receiver, 4011. On the bottom of the receiver is the date Oct. 30th 94 which may be the patent date or the date of manufacture. Both barrels are stamped on the bottom with the letter K and the letter P, not together, a couple of inches apart. On one barrel is stamped a large number 7 next to a smaller number 8. My grandfather was born in 1888 and passed in 1973. I am 64 years old and remember this piece from my earliest years with him. Can anyone tell me some things about this gun?
