I believe it was made by Biakal; sure poor inletting around the locks and the Russians are big on gold, but look at the breech face. http://www.gunauction.com/buy/10732446/s...-12-ga-sxs-gold

The Russians had nothing to do with that ugly gold piece of s#*t other than making one of their Baikal coach guns. If you look the "engraving" and "embelishments" was done by a place in Rapid City, SD. To top it off it was gifted by a company from Fargo, ND! I hope you boys don't think all of us Dakotans are into such fine guns! I love the engraving certificate. "If it does not say A&A, just take it out and shoot it!" Damn straight, if I owned it I would be too embarressed to take it out to shoot it!

I bet "Torchy" could melt all that gold off.  I looked at and handled one Baikal in my life. An o/u 12 bore. The POS was shot loose in under 500 rounds. The owner was sending it back and I formed an opinion about Baikal.

No I haven't seen one like that. To be honest I think it's kind of a cheesy way of doing it. Some people might find it acceptable but I sure don't.

Yup-- old Eddie boy, when he ain't otherwise occupied in re-writing the American pages of history and besmirching the name of General Robert E. Lee- sure is handy-dandy with that old NCH-- "blue flamed wrench"- although I am guessing, from the fotos of some of his POS offerings on Gun Busters site- he used the "Flammengraffer" tip, what we in the trade called a "Rosebud"- nothing to do with the busted up sled in the finis of "Citizen Kane" howsome-ever--
But as a foto, and this one makes we want to go and piss in someone's canteen for offering such a POS-- does make me think of another great point in American History-- when some cub reporter from Stars and Stripes, interviewing General George Smith Patton Jr. just before the invasion of Sicily-- to wit: "General, are those mother-of-pearl grips on your Colt sidearm?
"They're ivory, sonny- only a CHEAP PIMP IN A NEW ORLEANS WHOREHOUSE WOULD HAVE A pistol with Mother-of-pearl grips"--
"The field is the touchstone of the man"..

Uck. Reminds me of the guns from the collection of Larry Flynt which were up for sale this past year through one of the other internet sites: nice guns with decidedly, um, outside-the-norm taste in decoration.
Then again, this was never a "nice" gun.
But, with the price of gold these days....
