details for those who care

30" unfooled with barrels and spotless bores - identical measurements in both 1 weight tubes--> .723 bores with four inches of choke ending in 36 thousand of constriction - 42 minimum wall thickness just before the chokes start and 75 thousands 9 inches from the breech -- 2 5/8 chambers

bluing is a little worn with a very few spots that need attention- I was going to have it reblued, but the more I look at it, I think I'll give the frontier pad treatment and let it continue to age gracefully.

the stock was refinished before I got it, I could not ask for better shooting dimensions

There is some case color- mostly in protected areas - screw heads near pristine.

The Kick-ezz pad has to go- I have a Galazan's solid red one that I think will look much nicer.
