TITANIC STEEL", light engraving at the breech, and chambers measured 2 3/4 inches with automatic ejectors. The barrels are fitted to the size "0" casehardened boxlock action which displays standard DH Grade engraving consisting of floral scrollwork surrounding a trio of game scenes depicting a setter in a field on the right, a quartet of pheasant cocks on the underside, and a pointer in a field on the left. The gun features an added Miller single selective trigger and a tang mounted manual safety. The gun is fitted with an attractively figured and multi-point checkered beavertail forend with engraved forend iron as well as a pistol grip stock with carved drop points, factory hard rubber grip cap, blank gold inscription oval, and an added Silver's type orange recoil pad.

Very fine overall as professionally refurbished, retaining 95% blue finish with most of the loss on the lower tang, recut checkering, light handling evidence, slightly oversized recoil pad, a tiny crack at the left side of the stock head, and sharp checkering on the stock and forend. Mechanically excellent.
