Agree on the restock - full pistol grip rather than the French half-grip. 65mm chambers (2 1/2") = post 1924.
Thank you!
The bores are bright and shiny with no rust or pitting, I should have taken a pic of them. Its a nice tight gun, and everything functions as it should. I have not shot it. I do have some 2" 12ga 7/8oz #8 plastic hull shells from RST, can they be shot in this gun? Does a gun like this have any value?
