This shotgun was manufactured around 1925 by Fabrique Nationale for Browning and is in the Grade IV/Type 6 gold inlaid version shown in F.N.'s "Armes de Luxe" catalog. Both barrels have gold inlaid flourishes at the breech, and the receiver has fine gold inlaid floral patterns and borders. The gold inlays are also lightly engraved. Both barrels have "BROWNING ARMS COMPANY OGDEN UTAH" marked on their textured solid ribs. The shorter barrel has a red fiber optic front sight and is marked "MODIFIED 12 SPECIAL STEEL" on the left ahead of the proofs. The longer barrel has dual white bead sights and is marked "FULL 12 SPECIAL STEEL" on the left ahead of the proofs. The left side of the receiver is marked "FABRIQUE NATIONALE D'ARMES DE GUERRE HERSTAL BELGIQUE/BROWNING'S PATENT DEPOSE," and the bottom has "FN/70159/D" at the front and "GM" in the loading port. The replacement pistol grip stock and forearm are checkered, and the buttplate is embossed with "AUTOMATIC/FN/BROWNING" and Art Deco designs. The set comes in a Browning takedown case.

Very fine overall as professionally upgraded with 98% plus of the blue and gold finish remaining, crisp engraving and checkering, very slight crack at the front of the wrist on the left, attractive figure, and a few light handling and storage marks. Mechanically excellent.
