With provisions for a front sight bead on the shortened coach gun length barrels, 2 3/4 inch chambers, standard rib marking, and straight cylinder bores. The action and lock plates have flourishes of light scroll surrounding game bird scenes of what appear to be ducks on the right and quail on the left. The underside of the action has matching engraving and has been non-factory stamped with a single "J" just ahead of the trigger guard. Checkered forearm and pistol grip stock with engraved fittings, horn grip cap, and serrated hard rubber buttplate. With 2 snap caps. Length of pull is 13 7/8 inches.

Rating Definition:

Fair with the as mentioned shortened barrels, strong visible Damascus pattern, some denting around the muzzles, small scratches and dings, and an overall brown patina. The action and locks have approximately 30% original thinning case colors, an overall gray patina with areas of darker spotting, and mostly crisp engraving. The stock is poor with crack on left side of the wrist from the upper tang to the rear of the left lock, repaired area on the right side under the lock, chipping out around the end of the upper tang, and small dings and scratches overall. Mechanically excellent.
