It looks like a nice gun, those Blanch guns are growing on me.

It does appear that when the butt stock was refinished it was re-checkered with standard "pointy" diamonds and they left the forend as found- dark, with flat diamond checkering. I understand why sellers do this, I just don't like it.

It looks to me like a very good example and a lot of gun for the money. Of course I'm bias having one in 16 bore. If I needed more
LOP I would probably lose the buttplate and replace with a leather pad and maybe a little darker and more red in the stock finish.
What a sweet gun it would be. BTW the diamonds on the grip are recut but look flat to me? Not hard to match up the forend. Nice

Better to keep your mouth shut and be thought stupid,than open it and confirm.
