The Eclipse Gun Company name was owned (trade marked to) Henri Pieper of Belgium. They were manufactured from early1880's to late 1920's. Pieper was associated with several different companies some of which bore his name and all of them made handguns and shotguns. The Eclipse Gun Co. models ranged from a low of $14 to a high of $60 in the 1907 era. Ithaca doubles of that era ranged from $17.50 to $112.50. The Eclipse Gun Co. models were good quality dependable field grade doubles. Be careful with them, as some were made with damascus barrels, and are unsafe to fire with modern smokeless shotshells.

Eclipse Gun Company is a name found on Belgian manufactured double barrels from around 1900-1916. The manufacturer was Henri Pieper. Please note that the Damascus barrels were meant for BLACK POWDER shotshells, and should not be fired with modern day ammo.
Most likely made at the turn of the century. Doubtful if any published information is available.
Not sure about Belguim Gun Co. but I used to own a New England. It is durable, cheap, and fun to shoot. You can find some online for as cheap as 65 dollars.
The Eclipse Gun company name was owned (trade marked to) Henri Pieper of Belgium and were manufactured from as early as the 1880's to as late as the 1920's. I am not aware of any specific serial number data base for these guns. Many of these were damascus steel barrels, and should NOT be fired with modern ammo.
Manufactured in Belgium by Simonis, Janssen, Dumoulin & Co.
