The photos look okay if you do not attempt to zoom in too far. The stock has an old repair in the wrist, but was done up nicely. The barrels are really nice. I like to think they have been re-browned. Every swirl is vivid and the line where the ribbon was wound and welded is very distinct. The bores are perfect. Mr. Greener states that the record shows the barrels as 'Damascus', but that might be a generic term back in 1894. Drew Hause has a lot of info on these barrels. They look like 'Laminated' if you ask me! I am anxious to put a few rounds through her, as well as my new NH 10, seeing as how the snow is finally receding.
