Thank you for your comments. The forearm has seen some use. Yes the checkering looks find to me, sharp points and lots per inch. This gun was shot pretty heavily. Where it was held the bluing is gone. I bought it from the son in law of the original owner, who was a successful businessman. If I named his product you'd know who I'm talking about.
So the gun hasn't gone through many hands. Oh, I suppose the fellow who owned it might have been a second owner, but it is unlikely. His son in law inherited all of his guns including a battery of Winchester Model 21's, rifles, etc. They were all stolen except for this gun and another, a pistol. What a crying shame! I hope there is a special place in hell for people who steal fine guns.
