I paid $150.00 for an old breach loading hammer gun. It was void of any finish on the Damascus barrels and action. So I just browned it like my muzzleloading guns.

Browning or may not be traditional but it sure makes the Damascus pattern stand out.

I use it for black powder skeet and it handles 1 oz PB 5K loads just fine.

Resale value means nothing as my grandkids will fight over it when I am gone. smile
