Chopper lump barrels with solid smooth slightly concave rib with single brass bead sight. Tubes signed "Browning assembled by Lebeau Courally" and "Mod B.S.L. 12 Ga 2 3/4" Made in Belgium". Underside of barrels with serial number and Belgian proofs including choke marks, left with 1 star with a minus, right with 2 stars and a minus. Barrel flats with Belgian proofs for 12 gauge, 70mm (2 - 3/4") chambers. Forearm with Anson release and diamond escutcheon. Engraved with simple scroll at release, escutcheon and exterior iron. Point pattern checkering. Matching serial number on interior iron. Case colored sidelock action with well cut hand done scroll accents signed "Lesire" just under the left lockplate. Double triggers with long trigger guard. English style straight stock with point pattern checkering at wrist. Toe with oval engraved "EA". Checkered butt. Housed in a leather wrapped Emmebi case with Browning custom shop leather label in lid and pair of 12 gauge snapcaps. CONDITION: Very good, retaining the vast majority of the barrel blue with a few minor marks scattered about from field use and a few marks from handling and use. Forearm is very good with a few dings, also from light use, with one very small chip missing at release. Action is very good, case colors are vibrant and engraving is crisp, with a few minor handling marks. Trigger guard colors have almost completely faded, likely as a result of handling. Checkering is sharp. Stock is very good with nor discernible cracks or chips, and just a few handling marks. Action works appropriately when cycled by hand, bores are bright with a touch of orange peel beginning in front of chambers. Case is fine. EW
