Description:

This example was manufactured in 1959. The sides of the receiver are engraved with game scenes. The left side shows two dogs pointing at a flushing quail in a grassy field with trees in the background and the right side shows four ducks in flight over a marshy area. There are flourishes of floral scroll engraving around the games scenes, on the trigger guard, on top of the receiver, on the top of the receiver extension and a 3 inch wedge on the top of the barrel over the chamber. The bolt and shell lifter are jeweled. The barrel has a Poly-Choke installed with a single brass bead sight, the barrel is marked modified for the original choke constriction and has a 2 3/4 inch chamber. Mounted on a nicely figured, diamond pattern checkered extended walnut forearm and pistol grip stock with steel grip cap and Pachmayr Decelerator recoil pad. Length of pull is 13 inches.

Rating Definition:

Very good as custom embellished with 95% plus of the high polish blue finish remaining with a few scattered scratches and some cycling wear. The barrel has been shortened and a Poly-Choke added. The reoiled replacement wood is very good as shortened with scattered minor dings, scratches and a recoil pad added with some sanding marks at the heel and toe. Mechanically excellent.
