Mike, you may have to be patient as I believe Steve has already left for Africa.

I know the gun was finished and sent back to the owner a while ago.  Steve won’t be back for a few weeks.

Yup, it is my shotgun and it is perfect. In a few weeks it will be back out chasing pheasants

I see that it has a top safe. I understand stock makers find Greener’s with his patent side safe of 1877 have an added layer of complication. ![[Linked Image from i.imgur.com]](https://i.imgur.com/Xqzscuq.png)

I can imagine that side safety would be a real PITA.  
 Steve did a wonderful job.  There was a fair bit of metal damage that had to be fixed also.  I couldn't be happier with it.
 
 Where I screwed up was in not having him refresh the forearm checkering.

Mc,
 19886 for 1878. Must have been one of the first A&D guns with their new side safe. Non ejector but a 30 Guinea gun at the time.

I have one 19200 it's in not great shape I keep it because it's such an early A&D |

You can always send the forend back to be refreshed after bird season.
