Wow. That is a rare and wonderful gun. What is the full name on the case? It will never be known what the original purpose of your gun was, but it is what it is, a trap configured 16 gauge. Not all trap configured guns have two beads. My CHE 32" vent rib, single trigger, beavertail forearm gun only has a front bead. Some shooters seem to prefer only one bead.

Chris, right click on one of his pictures, click "Open Link" at the top of the selections, and you can access all 51 pictures of the gun.

Here are some other photos to show the breech area and the BTFE bolt. Yes, that case came with the gun and I was told that was the original owner. Now I might need some suggestions as to the amount of restoration that I should do. She has been in the closet for a long time. I'm happy that I was able to get her out.

Default BTFE

That is the BTFE that was advertised as having the same taper as the splinter

Maybe that's what makes it to appear longer than usual.

Default Vent Rib 16

Charlie Price tabulates 31 vent rib 16 ga guns, all with s/n greater than 180000, and only one 32 inch. There is much missing data 180 - 241000, and there may be several more vent rib guns

Best, Austin

My guess is that the link has been blocked by our forum administrator in order to protect Mr. Allegra's privacy in not allowing us to see his other personal albums.

I wonder what the serial number is on Rich Anderson's Damascus GHE with vent rib and BTFE?
