A good friend said he found this and I could have it if I wanted. It's been a few months, and we finally crossed paths last week. I guess I have to move him to the great friend list.

Wow!

Wow! Flues model I'm guessing? If you decide to pass it along, I've been looking for one for years...Geo

Special order top rib?

Great friend list indeed. Very ornate checkering and the wood looks highly figured. Good for you.

Definitely a Flues according to pin placement of the two pins placed in the rear of the action.

High grade Flues are stunning.

And it missed two starlings flushed out of the barn yesterday smoother than my other gun.

We should all have friends like that!

Outstanding!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Bobby

My, my, very nice!! Can you post a pic of the muzzle end of the rib?

Spectacular!

I need a friend like that! Nice job. Beautiful gun.

Appears to be a "swamp rib" gun. Not very many of those around.

Yup, a very rare swamped rib graded gun. What a find.

Wow! I love the furniture.

Congratulations, Marks21. That is indeed a beauty. And, you are right about how special friends are. I have recently been blessed in a similar way.

All my best, SRH

Nice little Flusie! Any idea what it weighs?

Whew! Someone at the factory was in a very giving mood when they pulled that stock blank.

12 ga. 28 in. 6# 10oz
