Newest addition - first D!

[Keavin Nelson]

Lets see, a D grade 12ga on a 1 1/2 frame, 28" barrels, M//F in deminsions that fit me.A bit of color left on the bottom and sides, mirror bores. 6#11 oz.

It has only taken me about 30 years to make the jump!

[Eric Estes]

Congratulations, very nice looking gun. I look forward to the day when I will be able to get my first D. I just hope it doesn't take me 30 years. :-)

/thought I would post additional pictures - while in good condition, the stock has more than it's share of dents, dings and scratches. Most should steam out. Checkering isn't too bad.

One thing that has me puzzeled is the full coverage checkering on the foreend - it looks original, about the same wear and the grip, and it is mullered.

[B. Dudley]

Yes, full cover on a D would be truely out of the ordinary and unique.

[Dean Romig]

Not unique. I had a DHE with 30" Damascus barrels, straight grip, skeleton butt plate, ejectors, 1-frame, fully checked forend, and twin ivories all supported by the research letter.

Actually, yes, when you said "unique."

Really nice engraving. All D's are nice but some have what I consider nicer engraving like this one with more background behind the dog. And those few bumps on the wood are like scars on a boxer, just means she has been there. Enjoy. Congratulations on a great find.

[Mike Franzen]

Great gun! Congratulations Alfred. I would to see some pics of the forend.

Not sure of the correct terminology, but I do not see the teardrops behind the cheek panels on this stock. When did they become a standard item on D's?
