They sent me ; Lot 1385, Auction 82 - The barrels are loose on face, with decent tone. A few small dents are visible in the right barrel, bores are streaked and spotted through the length. Mild dents and chips are present on the wood. Your photograph request is lined up and we'll look forward to sending it soon. Casandra, Customer Service . I kinda figured you would be after this hence the reason I didn’t submit a phone bid , as I figured I couldn’t steal it .

When I said I did not see the bulge, I don’t mean it wasn’t there...I just did not see it. I’ve missed things like this before (to my chagrin). I did not take the fore end off. I did clearly hear the gun cock each time I opened it. That was enough for me to put it back on the rack. But, Craig, it was a beautiful gun.
