Which twin has the Toni? e.g (for the younger set) which, if either, is original and which, if either, is 'restored?' Answer tomorrow. Top is 1. , bottom is 2.

I vote for 2 as the restored and nicest gun.

They both probably belong to Walt. Therefore I'd say both are original!...Geo

They both look like they have had work done.
What is the issue with the stock finish on #2 right behind the frame? Or is it a lighting illusion?

I say #1 is original.
Do we win the original gun if we get the question right?

I vote #2 is original and #1 has been nicely redone. Look at tree behind the pheasant, no brush/leaves in #1 as in #2 (? Buffed off in restoration) and #2 has a bit of wear to action. It's a tough call, but that's my bet.

Regardless of what Walt tries to tell us, number 2 is totally original and number 1 is nicely redone. Pay no attention to what he claims tomorrow.
