It would look just like a 12g or 16g invincible. Just larger.

This gun was on Cowans table at the Southern. It was pretty shiny and glitzy no doubt about that.

Darn, I missed it at the Southern. At the Baltimore Show, at the Fifth Regiment Armory, in the mid sixties, Jack Puglisi had an upgrade Invincible 8 gauge on his tables. That gun reappeared a few years back, but I don't remember who was selling it. Does anyone know how to get a picture of that gun? Also at Baltimore in the same time period, there was a Parker eight made into a lamp with the wires routed through a breech ball and up the barrel to the light fixture. Today it is probably a working gun with a visible (or nearly invisible) repair to the breech ball. However, if it was a hammer gun, it could be wired through the plunger hole. I don't remember if it was a hammer or hammerless gun.
