It's pretty nice, really, for an 80-some year old field gun. The wood has some pressure marks......…...not really scratches or scrapes. More like dents. Bluing is nice. there's a hairline crack (I needed my loupe from college geology to spy it) along the tang. Bores appear to be dirty, but excellent. Don't have a 16 gauge swab here...…..but it's on the way.
Not sure what I'm going to do with it. I think There's some 16 gauge ammo odds & ends here. Gonna have to shoot it a little. Would make a nice resto candidate. Would be a good one to just hunt. Would be a good one to walk around a gun show with...……….. I'm not in love with it yet, so......….
Would make a nice resto candidate. I agree!!!! How did you do on it price wise?
Hairline crack in the tang or in the wood around the tang?
