Description Update 05/30/2024: Small hairline crack right of the upper tang
serial #FW104403, 12 ga (2 3/4”), 26” Armor Steel barrels choked improved cylinder and improved modified with bright excellent bores, the left bore showing evidence of light honing at the choke. The barrels retain about 97-98% original blue, appearing stronger under ambient light, with light wear at the muzzles and the beginning of the same at the breeches, and a few scattered light handling marks. The case-hardened frame retains about 95% original case color with the rounded half of the belly toning to gray with speckled oxidation staining and some light silvering on the edges of the fences, the balance showing strong color with some speckles of staining here and there. The triggerguard and forend iron retain about 85% original blue with some light wear and handling marks. The checkered capped pistolgrip walnut stock is in very good plus condition with a tiny flake behind the upper tang and some scattered minor abrasions, largely only flaking the finish, and the splinter-style forend is in very good condition with a series of older light dings and handling marks, a few marring the somewhat softened checkering. The grooved hard rubber buttplate is intact and gives a 14” length of pull with drops of about 1 3/4” and 2 7/8”. The factory markings are intact and crisp with the Hunter Arms address on the left barrel, and the barrels and forend are numbered to the gun. The shotgun locks up tight and on-face with the lever coming to rest right of center and features double triggers, an automatic safety, extractors, and is sighted with a lone brass bead. An attractive Field Grade that has weathered the years spectacularly. (14B11472-31) {C&R} (1000/1500)

GUIDELINES FOR FIREARM PURCHASES
• All Federal, State and Local firearms laws will be observed. FFL holders may take possession of any firearm on day of sale when they present a signed copy of their Federal Firearms License. New Hampshire residents over the age of 21 may take possession of any firearm on day of sale providing the proper paperwork is filled out and the transfer has been approved either through the NH State Police or the FBI NICS System. While most NICS and State approvals are immediate, approvals could take up to 3 days. Most non-residents may take possession of long guns on day of sale after completing the proper forms and successfully completing a NICS check; modern handguns will need to be shipped to an FFL holder in the buyer's home state. Buyer is responsible for any and all shipping charges and all items must be paid for on day of sale. Bidders should be familiar with their local and state laws as Amoskeag Auction Co., Inc. will not be responsible for any parties purchasing items which may not be possessed in, or shipped, to their state of residence.
