Catalog Page: 252
Class: Curio & Relic Long Gun
Description:

This unique matched set of Fabrique Nationale Superposed shotguns feature dual white bead sights on Broadway Trap style vent ribs with 2 3/4 inch chambers, automatic ejectors, and extra full/extra full chokes on the "A" gun, and full/full chokes on the "B" gun. Based on serial number records, the first gun was manufactured in 1958, and the second in 1973. The underside of the barrel lugs are both hand marked "BSANY/MILLBROOK". The "A" gun is also marked "SLEEVED". Both guns are engraved in the FN factory Presentation Grade C3 Birmingham style with acanthus leaves on the barrel wings, and full coverage English lace scroll on the actions. With checkered single triggers and sliding tang safety/selector switches. The forearms are checkered with a slight Schnabel tip. Both guns feature matching offset stocks for a right handed, left eye dominant shooter with raised tear drop accents at the wrist, exposed stock screws, and leather wrapped recoil pads. Includes leather bound takedown case, properly fitted for both guns with canvas and leather outer cover.

Rating Definition:

Fine as professionally, embellished, refinished, and restocked with 97% of the blue finish remaining on the barrels, barrel markings absent, and some visible traces of light pitting under the blue. The action is bright overall with sharp, professionally executed engraving, and some small spots of a brown patina. The wood is also fine with sharp checkering, slightly uneven finish, small scattered dings, and some light cracking visible on the leather pad wrap. Mechanically excellent. Case is excellent with some light storage marks, and a broken snap on the cover.
