The gun was built with blued Damascus steel barrels featuring a single bead sight on the matted concave solid rib which is marked with the Colt address, single bands of engraving at the breech, and 2 5/8 inch chambers with automatic ejectors. The barrels are fitted to a casehardened boxlock action which displays attractive scroll engraving at the edges around a setter flushing a quail on the left, a pointer poised to flush a quail on the right, and a solitary goose on the triggerguard. The action is marked with the "PATENTED AUG 22, SEP 19 1882" marking on the underside and features double triggers and a tang mounted automatic safety. The gun is fitted with a beautifully figured and multi-point checkered splinter forend with engraved fittings and an ebony tip inlay, as well as a pistol grip stock with checkered flats, a blank silver inscription oval, and hard rubber grip cap and factory buttplate. The included factory letter confirms the above gauge, barrel length, Grade 2 configuration, blue finish, pistol grip stock, and weight when the gun was shipped to H&D Fulsom Arms Co., New York, NY, on May 11th, 1894. Barrel and stock measurements (R/L): bore diameter nine inches from the breech both .730 inches; choke constriction .015/.018 inches; minimum wall thickness .031/.032 inches; 1 5/8 inch drop at comb; 3 7/16 inch drop at heel; 14 inch length of pull; weight 7 lbs. 13 oz.

Very good, retaining most of the refurbished brown Damascus twist pattern finish on the barrels turned a handsome brown, some thinning, attractive silver patina on the action, and a few patches of cleaned oxidation. The wood is refinished with a crack at the wrist from the upper tang, a few marks, and sharp checkering. Mechanically excellent.
