Nice shotguns! I am restoring my great grand dads 1957 Win 97. It met with an unfortunate accident a number of years back. I will be hunting with it in the next couple of years I hope.

I learned how to hunt/shoot using an old Model 17. I have a 4 digit S/N gun now, kind of beat up but I like it!
Is the top one a model 31?

Lets find a better word for the vulgar "porn" when describing things we like like fine guns!
Words like "Classic" or "Fine lines" have been good.
Please suggest some others. Thanks

A little shotgun soft porn. What else would you call it? Maybe very expensive shotgun soft porn? Fine shotgun soft porn?

I like those old 870's. Does your model 31 have a 30 inch barrel? Looks even longer in the photo.

Got to handle another's Parker VHE 20ga last week. All the case hardening was gone, maybe 50% blueing on barrels. The stock was showing its' age and a little low at the comb, like many of them are. But the balance was there like few others. I would really like to own one like it.
