Why a fishtail lever on a hammerless gun? Using up old stock after the changeover?

Ya John,That is what we believe. I have 68805 and 75 something. Both hammerless guns with the fishtail top lever.

Thank you all for the nice compliments on the gun ,I am very pleased with it ,I bought the gun quite a while ago and the barrels were blued ,a nice looking job ,but not correct and in my opinion ,not any where near as nice as the Damascus pattern ! Brad has been working hard on his barrel refinishing procedures and Case Coloring ,just wanted to show off his Damascus work ! Considered having the entire gun refinished ,but for now opted to just do the work that was really needed and go from there !

Wow, that is outstanding, Russ!! As well - any idea what they used to coat the bbls with to protect the pattern? Shellac, maybe??? Simply outstanding!

Thank you John ;No I have no idea ,I haven't had a chance to speak with Brad since I received the gun back a little over a week ago ,I just keep missing him ,I have been getting in, in the evenings this past week a little later than usual ! I post the pics. mostly so the guys can see the workmanship coming out of his shop ,and of course to show off the barrels just a little bit
,as everyone is aware Damascus refinishers are few and far between ,I know Brad frequents our site here ,maybe he will see the post and comment what he puts on the barrels after refinishing ! Thanks again John for the compliment on the gun ! Russ
