For std. grade gun in terms of fit and finish it's number 1 pump gun out there. I'm sorry I didn't buy Mod. Super X-1 (field gr. no rib Mod choke) in new condition plus tags at Gander Mountain for $350. Now few years later I had to settle for like new Ithaca Mod. 51 which is not as tough a gun,
but the wood is quite a bit better with some feathering in the butt end.
My Mod. 31 with alloy frame is nice handling gun, but doesn't come close to Winchester in terms of spit und polish. I might pick up ole' mod. 17 in near future. I like that anchor mark on the barrel, what can I say?
