A handsome Chiefs Special, and more importantly, a wonderful memento to remind you of your younger years.

Great engraving and some local history to boot!
I don’t know what you paid, but it sure would have caught my attention.

Jack's shop was in the basement of his house. It was quite a place. Guns were stored all over his basement.
His glass display case was a place of a very clever security piece. In the front of the case was a double barreled shotgun with the muzzle pointing towards the base of the stairs.
A 'bad guy' might be severely affected trying to go up the steps!
The 'pull cord' to the triggers was very cleverly hidden at the back of the case housing the shotgun!
