Well it is, yes. It was owned then by Buck Hamlin , then sold at Tulsa and now owned by a PGCA member here. It is a great and highly interesting gun, one which quite a few Winchester collectors were not aware existed. Another PGCA member here has an even better one, that one being the black diamond grade with extra fancy wood, checkering and a take down model. That gun cost three times the price of a standard fluid steel barreled Mod 1897.

"The barrel of this gun has been proved with 9 1/2 drams of powder, and 2 1/2 ounces of shot."
I believe that would include the booby trap Damascus barrel
