Ken the only way you get wear on the end of the barrels like that is by putting the gun in and out of a case a couple of thousand times. If they were cut it was 100 years ago. Lets see the rest of that beauty.

They don't look cut to me, either but if they could talk I bet they could tell a lot of good stories. I'm with Larry, please share pictures of the rest of the gun.

Cheers

Dave, The serial number is 41529 it is a 10 gauge with 30 inch barrels. The shotgun is getting a face lift by Brad Bachelder.

Ken,Very nice gun. 41529 is in the book as a D3 10 gauge 32" gun. I would have Brad check the length of the chokes. The"Book" has been wrong before.Also I would get a letter on the gun.

Thanks Dave. I fell in love with it after seeing the picket fence on the underside of the frame. I will post pictures after the restoration.

Thanks for your opinions, I felt that this is the way the barrels left the factory, I will have Brad check the length of chokes. Either way it is mine and will be out in the field again.

Ken
