I would not guess that this gun is a two pin ventilated rib gun. A 28" vent rib is a rare and unlikely factory item. More likely is a Simmons retrofit field grade gun. My guess is a Simmons rib, misaligned at the extension, hard to solve that problem. If the starting point would have been a nice two pin vent rib gun, the value would be much higher. Pachmayr donated guns are not a hot item on the collector market. There is no real shading in the engraving background, just punchdots. Has anyone seen a pheasant looking back at you on the flush? Overall, not a very neat gun.
