Very nice gun Dean. Though the gun is missing the ssbp, the leather wrapped pad is a nice treatment.

Very nice Dean, it's nice when one gets cleaned up a little and a Swan is uncovered. I look forward to seeing it at the Southern.

No Mills - I had no reason to photograph it in the condition it was in.

Dean,

That is a perfect bird gun. Given its history, it is a gun worthy of The Parker Story; too bad it was not available back then.

The wood is so beautiful I would be afraid to use it in fear of scratching it. Can't wait to see the barrels refinished. Are the chokes and length still intact? As someone wrote before, 20 gauge Damascus is hardly ever seen.

Dean;
Beautiful gun. I've always wanted a damascus 20 to add to my meager collection. If you ever want to sell it.......
