Cased Presentation Signed Engraved Renato Gamba Mustang Rifle Made For Gun Digest Editor John T. Amber with Scope and Accessories

This is a beautiful example of a presentation engraved Renato Gamba Mustang Model rifle. The barrel is blue and the remaining parts are coin. The barrel is equipped with a ramped blade front sight, fixed open rear sight and integral claw mount bases. The bottom of the barrel is marked "ACCIAIO BOEHLER - MADE IN ITALY", various proofs (including on the flat, and "270". The left side of the barrel is marked "ARMI RENATO GAMBA - GARDONE V.T." and the left rear is marked "BUILT FOR J.T. AMBER / BY RENATO GAMBA". The barrel is fitted with a Zeiss Diatal - Z 4x32 scope. The side lock action is very nicely engraved with a wooded scene of hunters scaring up deer, deer in a wooded scene on the right side and a wooded mountain scene of a bugling elk and deer. The left side has "ARMI RENATO GAMBA - BS" in a banner and "ARMI RENATO GAMBA" in a banner on the right side, and each side is signed by the engraver. The engraving is very fine. The fences are engraved with a fine scroll design and the same pattern is found lightly done on the trigger guard, tangs, break lever and forearm hardware. Single cross bolt, extractor, adjustable double set triggers, tang mounted safety with gold "SAFE", cocking indicator and mounted with deluxe, nicely figured checkered walnut Schnabel forearm and pistol grip stock with a cheek piece, Kickeez recoil pad and sling swivels. Complete in a leather covered oak case with brass hardware, double leather straps and leather handle, "JTA" inscribed brass plaque on the lid and green felt lining with gold embossed leather "ARMI / RENATO / GAMBA S.P.A. / GARDONE V.T. ITALY" label affixed to the inside of the lid. In the case is a sling, nickel oiler, 10 piece cleaning rod, two bore brushes and rubber lens covers for the scope.

ConditionExcellent. The barrel retains 97% original blue finish with some minor wear on the muzzle. The remaining parts retain nearly all of the original coin finish with some wear on the upper tang, some scattered mild discoloration and some very minor pitting on the front of the trigger guard. The wood is also excellent with a few overall scattered minor dings and handling marks, with sharp checkering. The scope is excellent with some minor scuffs and scratches on the left side and clear optics. Markings and engraving are clear. The case is very fine with a few small nicks in the leather, some minor corner wear, patina on the brass and some minor contact wear on the lining.
