Casehardened scalloped box lock action with cross bolt, cocking indicators, double triggers and tang safety. The action is engraved with fine scroll patterns and relief game scenes, the blacksmith symbol on the underside, and a pheasant on the right and a pointer with game birds on the left. Screw heads are engraved and the forearm latch assembly is casehardened and engraved with simple designs. Checkered pistol grip stock with 3-piece forearm, sling swivels, shadow-line cheekpiece, raised comb and Terminator-brand recoil pad. Length of pull is 15", 1 1/2" drop at comb, 1 3/4" at heel.
