Default Damascus refinished GH-16

Her is my 1901 GH-16 I perchased a few months back from a customer who herd that I liked parkers. Its been in his family long as he can remember,hung above the fireplace for several years now! Its all original except for the barrels exterior and new replacement ivory beads that had been damaged and a repare to the original DHBP. The barrels were not rusty, just no finnish on them and the ivory beads both damaged. I had the work preformed by Brad Bachelder in michigan, a fine job! He fixed a minor bump 5" from the muzzle that is no longer visable and I can't even find it anymore!, its gone. Barrel color looks parker correct best I can tell...lots of figure in the damacus now. Bores are not honed and bright with no visable pitting, has correct short chambers and will stay that way...(-: Screws are mint...just a nice little GH-16 no.-1 frame, 28" choked .019/.028 imp-mod and full, at 6lbs 10oz 14 1/4X2 1/2 drop....its headed for Kansas this november with RST 5# and 7.5# to live again!, hunting birds and quail. Thanks all Kenny Graft SXS ohio....(-:
