Not meaning to weigh in on either direction, but if this gun were to be properly restored, it would be a screamer!
Not that there is anything wrong with how it looks now, just curious.
Todd,
The issues I mentioned are fairly small considering the overall picture. Hammer screws appear to be wrong and one is damaged anyway. Then, the stock comb nose was chipped off at one time and somewhat crudely glued on. But other than that, it is just honest wear with good bores and mechanically sound/appropriate. Based on these issues, I am inclined to find appropriate screws and leave the rest. I do wish the barrels showed more pattern as they are beautiful under the fore end. I will await a letter, complete my research and take it hunting....
