I asked for a detailed condition report on BH 10ga. The gun had a barrel bulge that killed it for me. I still would like a 10ga BH Damascus to fill out my collection.
If you're interested in a RI gun ask many questions, measurements and additional pictures. They are excellent at getting you the information requested.

I asked as well they told me the gun was on face but loose and they didn’t mention the bulge .

I did not see the bulge, but I only gave the gun a cursory look. It was tight with the fore end on...and was beautifully crafted, as are high grades from this era.
