The bottom of the action is decorated with floral scroll engraving with a gold inlaid crown and gold inlaid "Krieghoff/Model 32".

Rating Definition:

Excellent. The 12 gauge barrels retain 95% original blue finish with some wear and minor scratches on the lower barrel from normal assembly of the forearm. The remaining barrel sets retain 98% original blue finish with a small amount of wear and a few minor scratches from normal assembly of the forearm. The remaining metal surfaces retain 99% plus original blue finish with all of the gold and silver inlay remaining. The wood is also excellent with only the slightest handling/storage marks and very crisp checkering. Mechanically excellent. The case is very good with stains on the corners and a few scratches on the exterior. The extra stock and forearm are excellent with a couple light scuffs and crisp checkering.
