Made with 30" fluid steel barrels that have matted ventilated rib with small white mid and large white front beads. Made with large beavertail forend that is checkered in point pattern towards muzzle end and has blued and engraved Deeley release. The case hardened action is engraved in floral pattern on sides with gold inlaid pheasant on left and gold inlaid woodcock on right. Bottom of action is floral scroll engraved with American Eagle at front and marked "MADE IN U.S.A. / ITHACA GUN CO. ITHACA N.Y. U.S.A.". Made with Miller single selective trigger, auto ejectors, and three position safety with trigger selector. Capped pistol grip buttstock made of American Walnut with checkered side panels and fleur-de-lis pattern through the wrist with gold oval near toe and terminates with a thin white lined pad. CONDITION: Excellent as partially restored. Barrels retain more than 95% of their restored blue. Forend is very good with a 1/2" rub mark towards tip that has removed the checkering in that area and finish beginning to crackle as it often does on these higher grade NID models. Action retains about 30% original case color, balance turned gray. Trigger guard retains most of a professionally restored blue. Buttstock is sound and retains most of an older restored finish with a series of vertical impressions on the right side of the comb and scattered handling marks. Action is a touch loose, otherwise mechanics are fine. Bores are bright and shiny. JSL
