The final project for this gun, currently in the works, is a second barrel and forend set. Original barrels, made in 1919, are MF 5 palm 29" choked IM and full. The second set, also made in 1919, are factory original and untouched 4 palm 25". The chokes will be opened to yet to be decided grouse/woodcock chokes, a perfect complement to the original IM and full.

I think the wood turned out okay.

And let me offer a big thank you to Mark Dube from this site, who knew who to call when he found himself with an Ideal that wasn't right for him. Thanks Mark!
Salut,
Je viens de vérifier la liste des numéros de série pour les Idéal Perfection.
Votre numéro de série n'apparaît pas sur la liste.
Je vois que vous avez aussi un très beau Idéal 6REE.
J'ai aussi la liste des numéros de série pour cette arme en calibre 12.
