Little Creek: It's clearly marked with 2 1/2 chambers but they aren't that now. Other than the aesthetics, everything seems to be proper on it (26-inch tubes, 14 3/8 LOP to a horn plate). It's been shamelessly abused by somebody in it's past. For a gun as obviously well-made as this Francotte, it just boggles my mind that some idiot would do that to the screws on the bottom of the action. They've been repaired and filed (too-wide), but they no-longer index. The toe of the stock has been somewhat in-artfully repaired as well. But, as mentioned earlier, the wood is fairly plain (I confess... I am spoiled). It has the period-correct shallow POW grip and the checkering is absolutely first rate. I measured it at the shop (but don't have that info at the moment). I'd guess about 5 1/2 lbs and fairly open chokes. With a cinch-on pad I shoot it passably well.
