Bibb, this gun has had major work done to it. My comments are only meant to inform you of it's condition, not as a criticism.

The metal has been recase colored, the checkering on the forarm has been recut and there is no blank space where the checkering meets the release lever. The buttplate may be original and the wood at the widow's peak can be fixed. The major thing is that the barrels are fluid steel with the correct rib marking but they have been sleeved (I hope that is the correct term) and the chamber area of the barrels are damascus maybe from a C grade gun. Also strange is the notches for the firing pins seen on the extractor.

I'm sure those more knowledegable than me can add their comments.
