To the poster rdm. I just noticed you have posted this on 3 forums that I know of. On the one forum you posted pics. From the pics I can tell you that the restoration was not done by a professional. The damascus barrels have been covered over with it looks like hot bluing--not a good thing. You can see color changes where the caustic bluing reacted with the iron in the damascus. It is also not good for the ribs on a SXS. The action has been polished leaving it a "polished in the white". There is no checkering on the stock or forearm. You have posted pics of this on another forum. Now instead of getting folks here to guess what your gun is, why don't you post the pics so everyone can plainly see what has been done? Then accept the answers you are getting as you have been told by different people on at least 3 forums. And no I didn't reply to your other posts on the other forums.
