Best kind of auction to gage the market, too.

Umph. Maybe pictures don't do that gun justice. That big honkin beavertail forearm with those short barrels almost make that gun look like a coach gun on tops of a Well Fargo run by its profile. I like 26 barrels for a tight cover hunting gun (insert endless debate discussion here on barrel lengths), but that configuration on that gun looks like something you would hide in a duster doing your ok corral reenactment.

BTW for me that is the first no no for my taste when it comes a gun to have all that longwise grain in the stock by the action. It looks like striped shorts with a plaid shirt, it just looks too busy. Structurally not a fan since it could split more easily along that grain but I am sure there are some arguments about that as well.
