The process to buy a gun in the Peoples Republic of Colorado finally completed yesterday. I made something of an event out of it and even picked up some target shells at the Scheels in C. Springs. The recent state tax on 4 flats of shells was almost $50 and they had to be removed from large cages by an employee with a key(!).
God help us here.
This gun is in very good original shape but it is very plain. Only simple border engraving, no ejectors, unfigured wood and a thin bakelite butt plate. Because it has a Churchill rib, all of the data that would usually be there is found on the tubes beside it. And, after a very close examination, I also found the tiniest JA stamp up near the forend hook.
Pictures to follow...
