Back to 93 pumps for a moment--a damascus 1893 would be even rarer than a model 61 shot--even rare than the pre-war 61 with the matted receiver like the model 12.
Oh, in that case I probably did not see one, but only read about them. Getting old you know. I've only been going to gun shows since the 50's and I've seen a few guns you see! LOL

Funny, but it seems to me that I did see one once and picked it up. Sorry, not sure. Sometimes, I wish I was 25 again. I was better looking, too.
