Picked up a couple guns recently I thought I'd share with everyone. The first is a silver wire inlaid Belgian 12ga hammer gun to go with my 16 hammer gun. 27.5" (cut) fine crolle damascus choked cyl/cyl, near perfect bores. Weighs 6lbs 5oz. Will make a great skeet gun. Pictures don't do it justice. It's stunning in person, handles like a feather, tight, crisp actions, and I can't wait to get the wood fixed up. Love the shape of the hammers on this gun. Very graceful. The barrel flats have a 43 stamped on them too, which leads me to wonder if maybe they were from a Husqvarna model 43? They are silver inlaid and match the gun though. Hmmm...:






The other is a Meriden grade 18 I took in on trade. The metal was restored so all I had to do was fix up the wood. It had no grain so I wanted to add some horizontal grain and these iridiscent silver, blue and brown swirling oak leaves to mimic the case coloring on the receiver. This is a stout 8 lb 30" f/f gun, and a fantastic shooter. I may be selling it, but haven't made up my mind yet.
