This rare example was manufactured in 1967. The receiver is extensively covered in the standard floral scroll and rose bouquet engraving along with two pigeons in flight on each side of the receiver. The barrels have a single steel bead sight, are choked modified/full and have 2 3/4 inch chambers with ejectors. Mounted on a nicely figured walnut forearm with multi-point checkering and a pistol grip stock with a black plastic buttplate. Length of pull is 14 1/4 inches.

Partially refinished (receiver), 99% of the original blue finish remains with only some slight takedown and high edge wear. 99% of the French gray finish remains with only a few small handling/storage marks. The engraved border around the outside edges of the receiver have been polished and re-done. The replacement stock set is very good with some scattered minor marks, the checkering has been touched up and there is some crazing of the finish. Mechanically excellent.
