Condition
The shotgun is mechanically functional. Both hammers cock and hold. Cosmetically, the shotgun is in fair condition. Much of the hardware has been heavily buffed of period pitting and corrosion. The trigger guard appears to be a modern handmade reproduction. The bore has not been visually inspected (requires a borescope.) The stock shows signs of period wear (nicks, dents, scratches.
