Single bead sight on the smooth concave rib marked "JOHN WILKES 31 GERRARD STREET LONDON. W", 2 3/4 inch chambers single extractor, standard British proofs on the flats, light engraving at the breech, and modified/improved modified chokes. The receiver features fine scroll engraving with "JOHN WILKES" banners on the sides, dual triggers, and automatic tang safety. Checkered splinter forearm with engraved fittings and straight grip stock with blank initial oval and solid Decelerator recoil pad. Barrel and stock measurements are: bore diameter at 9 inches from breech .551/.551 inch; minimum wall thickness .034/.034 inch; drop at comb 1 3/8 inches; drop at heel 1 3/4 inches; length of pull 14 1/4 inches.

Fine. The professionally refinished barrels have 98% deep blue finish, sharp markings, and some small nicks and scratches. The receiver has an attractive aged gray patina with well-defined engraving and markings. There is a screw through the upper tang that is not original to the gun. The refinished wood is also fine with small dings throughout, added recoil pad, some light chipping on the forearm edges, and visibly worn checkering. Mechanically excellent.
