Wasn't looking for a small ga. project at the time, but I know I should have bought it, and just stuck it in the safe.

I just got off the phone with my friend, and was hoping he remembered the serial number range. We both thought it was an early gun, but can't confirm that. It did come out of an old California estate, so very well could have been one of the duck club guns. It was well used, but was totally useable.
So here's what it was;
32" BBLs, Splinter fore end, double triggers, and skeleton steel butt plate.
Handling this gun, and not buying it at 3k will haunt me always. My friend feels equally bad about letting it slip through our fingers.
Oh well. I passed on a 68 Hemi Road Runner for 3k, back in around 1980
