Yup, a #2 frame trap is a scarce gun. The pad should be replaced with something more conservative. The length of the wood from the trigger should be about 13 1/2 to be considered original. It is a great gun, worth about $6000 to $7000, maybe less, maybe more. Insurance, maybe $9000, but most of us don't insure. It's expensive, and a safe is usually enough. Looking back at the pictures, I might ask if the barrel flats may include some Remington repair code stamps. It is a great looking gun with about three lifetimes of shooting left in it.
