Thanks all..I have sent the gun to Brad Bachelder for evaluation....may have damascus freshed up, new correct beads and repair butt plate....not replaced, he said he could fit a repair peice in place and would look good. The wood and frame are in exclent condition, the engraving is deep and visable with the early type birds. Should have a nice 16ga GH bird gun after its finished. Will shoot RST-S 5# shot on wild roosters in Kansas this fall...(-:
