Thanks for the compliments. My friend who is an avid old gun collector thought the Damascus looked pretty good. No visual indicators that rust was seeping into a fold. But he also recommended having a more detailed inspection before shooting it.

In regards to the trigger, I'm not challenging you by any means. I grew up hunting with a a single barrel shotgun. I'm not experienced with this type of double trigger but when I work the triggers, the transition from the first shot to the second shot seems more fluid and comfortable when shooting left handed. When shooting right handed, it seems like the trigger finger has to contort a bit to snap in behind the first trigger, whereas shooting lefty, the finger just slides from the first shot to the next. Anyways, that's was just my thoughts from playing with it.
