The gun features a single selective trigger and tang mounted automatic safety switch. Beautifully figured, multi-point checkered forend with engraved fitting and Anson button release and straight grip stock with serrated plastic buttplate. Includes original shipping box as well as a takedown case containing two snap caps, a nickel oiler, a two piece wooden cleaning rod, shooting glasses, and a choke tube pouch containing three chokes (improved cylinder, improved modified, and full).

Rating Definition:

Excellent, retaining 99% original blue and coin finishes with minor handling evidence. The forend has a slight chip at the shoe on either side, otherwise, the wood is excellent with sharp checkering. The case is very fine, accessories are excellent, and the shipping box is good. Mechanically excellent.
