Pretty hight condition although the wear on the bottom of the barrels tells me the gun has spend a few days afield. Hard to say if the pad is original but I doubt it. It's maybe a $3k gun to the right buyer. Around the steel no tortured worm shall twine.

There is certainly nothing in the pictures that would suggest cut barrels. Agreed - the keels are in place and the small smooth gap at the end of the rib matting looks correct. the guys on the Winchester board have been discussing another "mint" gun, as the title there says - buyer beware http://forum.winchestercollector.org/vie...asc&start=0

There are always people, including some players, who will pay more than what a gun is actually worth. Interesting that there were six-bids, the last five of which were made by the same guy. Humm... Around the steel no tortured worm shall twine.

He know his market and may even have a potential future owner in mind. Heck who want to own a 16 ga. anyways? Everyone knows that they do not even make shells for them anymore. If you doubt it go look in Walmart.
