Bruce's comments are right on the money.How are the bores? It would appear it was ordered without checkering. All in all, the gun looks to be in reasonably good condition. Don't think 'restore', but just properly clean it up. Breck Gorman can make those barrels pop, and the early damscus barrels have lovely pattern. I would not checker it, as a letter will probably confirm it was ordered sans checkering. If the bores are not horribly pitted, and the walls check out (thickness) it can be back in service. Ducks and Geese, beware!
