Single bead sight on the raised matte rib with 70mm (2 3/4 inch) chambers, ejectors, and bored approximately modified and full choke. The barrels are marked "AUG/ LEBEAU-COURALLY" on the right and "FCANT LIEGE" on the left. The barrel flats and water table have standard Belgian proofmarks along with the Lebeau-Courally maker's marks. The receiver and lock plates feature exceptionally fine best quality bouquet and scroll engraving with the Lebeau maker's marks on the sides of the lock.

Rating Definition:

Very fine. 99% refinished blue remains on the barrels with sharp markings, and just a few light handling marks. The receiver is a mostly uniform silver/gray with crisp engraving and traces of the original case colors on the flat of the action. The mounts have been reblued. The wood is very fine with some small expertly repaired cracks at the right tip of the forearm, sharp checkering. Fine attractive figure, and a few small dings and scratches. Mechanically excellent.
