Bbl flat is engraved with SN, gauge, and chamber length. Case hardened, low profile, OU action is fitted with pinless sidelocks with hidden access flaps for lock removal at tops of each lockplate. Safety is purposely blocked out, and inoperable. Gun is fitted with single non-selective trigger.

Single beaded, blued trigger guard has gold SN on tang.
