A few years ago, I bought the identical gun, except that it is a DHE. It was brown and pitted on the action and the interior was so full of gunk that the firing pins would not fall and the triggers would not return. It also had swivels like yours. I bought it in a local retail store for $1600. Dewey Vicknair cleaned out the inside and I cleaned the outside. However, I did no work on the wood to speak of, left the period swivels intact, and did not reengrave the receiver. Your gun is definitely nicer than mine. Who did your engraving?
