The barrels are fitted to a blued action which is unadorned aside from "TRAP/SKEET" marked on the triggerplate around the screw and features a single selective trigger and a tang mounted automatic safety with gold inlaid "SAFE" indicator. The gun is fitted with a beautifully figured and multi-panel checkered beavertail forend and straight grip stock with an added Pachmayr Decelerator recoil pad. Included is a second matching numbered set of 28 inch 12 gauge barrels with chambers marked 2 3/4 inches and chokes marked "IMP.-MOD."/"FULL". Also included is a factory letter which confirms the current trap finish, trap comb width, trap wood grade, and stock drops when it was completed for stock at the end of 1936, as well as confirming the gun was sent back to have the second barrel set added in July, 1952. Barrel measurements for the extra set (R/L): bore diameter nine inches from the breech .728/.729 inches; choke constriction .014/.031 inches; minimum wall thickness .034/.035 inches. Barrel and stock measurements (R/L): bore diameter nine inches from the breech .729/.729 inches; choke constriction .004(jug)/.011 inches; minimum wall thickness .030/.035 inches; 1 11/16 inch drop at comb; 2 1/2 inch drop at heel; 13 5/8 inch length of pull; slight cast-off; weight 7 lbs. 14 oz.

Rating Definition:

Very fine, retaining 85% refinished blue finish with much of the loss on the underside of the action, a filler screw and some discoloration on the top rib visible under the vent rib, and some mild handling evidence. The wood is also very fine with a few minor scratches and sharp checkering. Mechanically excellent. The extra barrel set is very fine.
