Description:

Restoration by SHOOTERS EXCHANGE.  Would say that the bores are VG to E if not for a dent in the left barrel that has caused a slight bent to both barrels .  The shotgun fires reliably but the pattern/accuracy suffers at long Range.  A very unique piece with an unusual and VERY SMOOTH action!  the action is released by lifting the top opening lever, referred to as the “key”, and in one motion sliding the moving part of the action rearward, ejecting the fired shell(s), allowing the user to quickly feed fresh ammunition into the empty chambers and then briskly shove the key forward, sliding the action into battery and strongly locking the action for the next volley.  A Unique and Beautiful Addition to any Side x Side Collection.   SHIPS INSURED TO THE LOWER 48 FOR $55.00.
