This impressively large Cogswell & Harrison double features crolle pattern Damascus barrels with a single bead sight on the smooth concave rib, chambers proved at 3 1/4 inches, single large extractor, 1800s London proofs on the tubes, and Birmingham nitro reproofs (1954-1989) on the flats. Casehardened action, locks, and hammers with sculpted fences, light border engraving, knurled underlever, and Birmingham and London proofs on the water table. Checkered, wedge fastened forearm and heavyweight straight grip stock with blank silver initial oval, and lightly engraved steel buttplate. Stock measurements and weight are: drop at comb 1 1/2 inches; drop at heel 1 15/16 inches; length of pull 14 1/4 inches; weight 13 lbs. 9 oz..

Fine as professionally, period refurbished with 85% restored brown finish on the barrels, some visible dings and light pitting under the finish, faint illegible rib marking, and strong visible crolle Damascus patterns. The action and locks have an overall mottled gray patina with traces of original case colors visible in the more protected areas, darker patina on the hammers and trigger guard, and some light surface oxidation and pitting. The wood is also fine with well defined, moderately worn checkering, small scattered dings, several larger dents and scratches, and dark patina on the buttplate. Mechanically excellent.
