Manufactured in 1977. According to the chart on page 415 of "The Browning Superposed: John M. Browning's Last Legacy" by Ned Schwing, only 67 total Presentation Grade 4 shotguns were manufactured between 1977 and 1984. The chart also estimates that only 3 multi-barrel sets were manufactured in the P4 grade during this time period. Single bead sight on the finely matted rib, standard markings and Belgian proofs, light engraving near the breech, 2 3/4 inch chambers with ejectors, and improved cylinder/cylinder chokes. Full coverage fine scroll engraving on the receiver and false side plates with gold inlaid game bird scenes of ducks on the right, pheasant on the left, a small quail on the underside, and the bust of a hunting dog on the trigger guard. The duck scene is signed "J. LEWANCZVK". Nicely figured, finely checkered three piece forearm with special order rubbed oil finish and straight grip stock with checkered bare butt. Barrel and stock measurements are: bore diameter at 9 inches from breech .620/.620 inch; minimum wall thickness .040/.040 inch; drop at comb 1 3/8 inches; drop at heel 2 1/4 inches; length of pull 14 1/4 inches. Second barrel set is 26 1/2 inches with a vent rib, 2 3/4 inch chambers, matching serial number with a "2" suffix, matching engraved fittings, and full/full chokes. With Browning takedown case.

Excellent overall. 99% original finish remains with sharp engraving, slight dip in the rib toward the rear of the barrel, light handling marks, and sharp checkering on the wood. Mechanically excellent. Extra barrel set is excellent with light handling marks and slight dip in rib. Case is very good with some scuffs and storage marks on the exterior.
