After I turned the gun back over to the owner to work out any sale arrangements he might be satisfied with I was contacted by a few of the guys from the Shotgunworld site. I referred them to the owner. I was enjoying watching the collectors throw one another off the trail and now the threads on this gun have gone silent.

Having thoroughly inspected this gun myself and knowing the history of it as well as the family it is coming from I am convinced it is right as rain with the sole exception of the kick-pad which was installed over the uncut end of the stock. I have really enjoyed the research on this Browning humpback..Geo
