24" PHE 16

[Richard Flanders]

Finally took muzzle pics of the PHE16. The bbls do not quite touch at the muzzles but there are seemingly keels in place. There's zero choke in either bbl. Does the matting look right? The line across is not a single clean line. There is slight bluing loss at both muzzle ends; not sure from what - perhaps from soldering in false keels?? No doubt these have been chopped, just a matter of whether it's factory or done at NAPA somewhere. I have a letter in the works. This gun did not come from a small shop that would not have known how to assess it's value and sold it on the basis of it being a very rare 24" P grade for a lot of money.
