Action and lockplates are engraved with very well sculpted full relief oak leaves, acorns, and oak twigs, as background to flushing ruffed grouse on left lockplate, and flying pheasant on right. This fine oak leaf engraving extends over fences and onto top lever, as well as bottom of action, where it frames scene of setter retrieving grouse and on to single beaded trigger guard bow, which portrays a settling woodcock.

Truly fine, what appears to be French walnut, straight grip buttstock has classic smoky watermarked streaking and marbling and light flame figure. It measures 14-1/16″ over steel buttplate engraved to match action with relief oak leaves framing Bulino vignette of setter pointing cock pheasant. All the fine engraving on this gun is by “Creative Art” and signed on trigger plate, along with individual craftsman signature “Fausti G”. Stock features drop points and point pattern checkering. Matching splinter forend has Anson type release and inset gold Bertuzzi device in central diamond.

Also included is a leather 2-gun case lined in watermarked green cloth. CONDITION: Excellent. Bbls retain nearly all of their orig lustrous factory blue with a few light handling marks. Action retains nearly all of its orig coin finish with one or two small areas slightly darkened. Stocks retain over 90% of their orig rubbed oil finish with a number of light marks, mostly on butt. Finish slightly worn through from normal hand wear at grip and on forend. Checkering is slightly worn. Bores are excellent. Action is tight. Bbls are on face. Locks are crisp. Forend has slightly warped away from bbls. Case is fine. A fast handling dynamic grouse or woodcock gun.
