I don't see what the big deal is. I'd send that to MASTER GUNSMITH ED LANDERS and he'd have it so pretty in no time. I also would make sure he saved that lovely forend!

I have seen a lot of shotguns over the last 45 years and this one
wins the award. It is near inconcievable how so many things could have been subjected to it. Surely this must have been a workshop of morons and not just one person!

He said it was relisted because of a non-paying bidder. Think the bidder had second thoughts?

Yes, at one time a very nice scalloped boxlock, now every screw mis-aligned and bugggered.
What a shame.

Terry, you beat me to it. I was going to mention that it would be a possible project gun except for the slightly cracked wrist. Amazing how the two sides of the crack are different colors. Must be the way the sun hits it or maybe a trick of the camera.
