It is heavily discounted and I would be buying it as a shooter, certainly not an investment.

Can you include some photos of the complete gun, muzzles and the barrel flats?
Glad you are excited about this CHE.
Is the barrel flat have the Titanic steel mark as well as the top rib?
Enjoy,
Erick

That is not really a very good sleeving job from a cosmetic standpoint. Since the sleeve joint can be seen from my house.

Im sure you were disappointed to realize after purchasing.An easy way to get it out from under the bed and money back in your hand it post it for sale here. For $800 I for one would buy it as well as many others Im quite sure. Some guns are destined to be hunted with.

Here are the pics I took this morning. Unfortunately they are with cell phone as the canon is with my wife and kid.

Anyway here they are:


The longer I seem to consider this one the less inclined I seem to buy it. I haven't decided yet as I plan to take it out and shoot it, but while it may be the rare chance for me to own a CHE, I am just not feeling this gun at the moment.

That may change with a couple of RST rounds through it. We shall see.

It really boils down to price. If it's a truly good deal...I'd buy it and let it lounge in my safe if nothing else. I'd also probably lose that pad if I were going to be seen in public with it.

If you say it's engraved as a D, how many birds are on the floorplate and what is the serial number?
