I have two friends that shoot Model 21's at sporting.One of them is a 16 gauge skeet gun that I would love to own. My point here is that the bluing on both these guns is absolutely breathtaking.It looks as if you could actually look into it.Fantastic! And to top it off both guns are the the early sculpted frame models. For me most model 21's handle like a fence post but that skeet gun could change my mind....
