General Specs: Iver Johnson, .410 Gauge, 6lbs 4 oz, Side by Side In the world of vintage American doubles, the .410 bore has always been highly sought after and costly. Of the big 5 makers, only Ithaca, Parker, and L.C. Smith produced the .410, and then in miniscule numbers. To purchase one of the above guns in .410 bore and good factory original condition, the price tag starts at $5000 and in the case of the Parker, exceeds $20,000! And that is for the plain jane field grades. Enter the Iver Johnson Skeeter with its highly figured walnut, ivory bead, standard beavertail forend, and a .410 specific "baby frame" and you have the best deal in the market place for an American .410 double. The Skeeter was known to be an extremely well made, stoutly built gun that won many national championships and was coveted by the likes of famous shooters Capt. E.C. Crossman and Major Charles Askins. Skeeters were produced only from 1933 to 1942, with about 1200 in all gauges and only about 500 in .410, so they are scarce guns with a grand history as competitive shooters, and now investment quality collector/shooters that continue to go up in value as you enjoy taking game and breaking targets with this gorgeous little .410. We have considered restoring the finish on the wood, as it is crinkling with age and has some nicks and dings, but some like the guns "untouched" and all factory finishes. If you would like the finish restored to historical perfection, add $350 to the cost of the gun and 6 weeks for delivery.
