Description:
Scarce gun being a grade 4. Early serial number of 618. 32" Damascus bbls with the pretty Damascus pattern that Remington had. These bbls have aged to a beautiful plum/brown patina with no dents. Inside the bores are quite good. Bright and shiny with very light pitting in front of the chamber area. Lock up is nice and solid. The frame has the grade 4 engraving which is all present. Metal is smooth. Still some case colors but mostly an antique grey patina. Stock is exceptional also. Nice fitting to the frame, even around the sidelocks with no losses. Stocks are just a bit too good. I think a master re-cut the checkering which is nice and sharp. A beautiful job as is the finish. These old Remingtons were beautiful guns and this one is a great example!
