Black finished action is engraved with nicely cut large shaded open scroll and acanthus as background for gold wire framed vignettes featuring semi-relief gold inlaid game birds; a trio of pheasants flying over meadow is on left; trio of ducks over marsh on right; and a bobwhite flying across open ground on bottom. Two different engravers signatures are found on lower rear of action; “A. Brigant” on left, and “R. Bee” (Rosa) is on right. Nicely figured and somewhat marbled Claro walnut long tang, square knob buttstock features typical Midas checkering and Browning buttplate. CONDITION: Excellent, appears test fired only, with only the faintest marks on wood and metal. Case is also nearly as new, with a few minor marks on exterior, and some slight soiling. JSL
