Well Sir,

You have done it time and time before and now have done it again, presented the forum with an absolutely beautiful example of American craftsmanship from a bygone era. Personally I would rather use that gun in the field than any other modern pump gun. Even if nothing was running or flying I could sit for hours and admire that gun as I do my Parkers.

Thanks,

Dennis

Bruce, that is a very nice Model 97 or 1897. Has it been lettered at Cody? Many high grade 97s and 1897 letter with no checkering. This gun may be absolutely as manufactured with fancy uncheckered wood and corncob forend.
