Default VH from a farm house 103400

This old gun spent its life next to a wood stove. The guy i bought it from said it was there ever since he was a kid. 30" VH and the barrels still ring with tight ribs. Safety is tough to move and probably gunked up from the head and oil. Just had to show everyone. The diamonds holding it tight apear to have a rod going through and then they are peened over like a rivit.

Another of those, "Wish she could talk guns!" That is some serious wear and still ready to go, these old guns are just tough. Thanks for sharing. As they say, she ain't an A1 Special but what a shotgun!
