| Metal Condition |
There are vestiges of case-colors visible (violets & blues) in protected areas and some light pitting in the normal handling locations. Some patches of patina exist and all action screws show evidence of turning. The barrels are mostly blue with a mix of gray patina from the mid-point to the muzzles. The left barrel has light contact denting. |
| Wood Condition |
The checkering on both stock and forend appears to have been re-pointed in the past and both have been sanded and lacquered. There are numerous scratches and contact marks both on and under the finish. |
| Bore Condition |
Both bores are bright, but the contact dents noted earlier are visible in the bore. Viewed from the breech, the left bore (Full Choke) has a slight dent in the 12 o'clock position approximately 1-1/2" from the muzzle and another at 9 o'clock about 6-1/2" from the muzzle. The right-hand bore is free of any anomalies. |
