Default I noticed something interesting today.

http://www.gunsinternational.com/gun...n_id=100755596

I was looking at this CHE 28 ga. Pugs Guns has listed today. If you look at the full size pictures you can see what looks like pencil marks laying out the checkering patter high up on the wrist. You can see it in the top most point of the checkeringby the opening lever. It's on both sides but more so on the right side. It could be my imagination, but it would be amazing if something like that lasted to this day!

Pretty neat gun all around, I'm not positive but it looks like a high flat rib to me!!

Not pencil lines. That checkeing is re-cut and you are seeing where the original checkering was and whoever re-cut it did not follow it.

Not much flat about that rib.

That's a shame, sloppy work on such a spectacular gun. I can't tell if the rib is flat or not, the doll's head extension looks flat.

There is something very fishy going on with those barrels.

It appears the barrels have been set WAY back, look at the gap on the doll's head, big gap.

Unless those pictures are deceiving to my eyes, I believe the dollshead is below the receiver surface, there is a large gap around the perimeter of the dollshead and receiver, and the matting is not continuous through the joint of the top rib.

I'd love to have it. It would be a gem in my tiny collection of C and higher beater grade small bore shot guns.
