Description:

Features dual ivory bead sights on a solid rib matte barrel with a fancy grade finely checkered Fleur-de-Lis stock and forearm with a hard rubber grip cap, and Winchester black checkered composition buttplate. Chambered for 2 3/4 inch shells choked full. The receiver features extensive floral border scroll engraving with gold inlaid game scenes, which extend to the trigger guard, grip cap, and a two inch section of the barrel breeches. The left side of the receiver exhibits two gold inlaid pointers with a flushed gold inlaid grouse amongst a wooded field scene, and is surrounded by floral border scroll engraving and outlined in a gold inlaid border. The right side of the receiver is similarly engraved with four gold inlaid Mallard ducks coming in for a landing amongst a reed lined waters edge. In addition, the underside of the magazine tube is engraved with a gold filled arrow overtop of an engraved pigeon with matching gold filled serial numbers on the barrel and frame, and gold filled Winchester proofs at the breech and forward top of the frame. Length of pull is 14 1/4 inches.

Rating Definition:

Near mint as custom embellished and refinished, with some slight thinning on the working surfaces of the magazine tube, in addition to some discoloration spots under the finish on the top of the receiver. The stock is near mint with exception of a few minor scratches/pressure dents on the underside of the shoulder stock. The forearm is similarly conditioned with the forward end of the slide exhibiting an area that is not fully flush with the metal rim (appears to be factory flaw and not wear), with all else being in near mint condition. The action is excellent, with light markings (due to buffing).
