It was kind of a roll of the dice as I knew nothing about French guns.

What I was able to find out was good though.
It was triple proofed from a renowned barrel maker.
The buttplate was horn where I thought it was only genuine plastic

That is one sweet gun Paul, nice catch. Love the deep relief engraving by the top lever. I need to follow you in gun shops and get the guns you pass on. Is it a 12 gauge? Larry

It is a 12 Larry
It's actually from the same store and lot of guns I got the Fox from.

Some really neat vintage stuff.

I'm not a shotgun guy, but even I can tell that's nice.

I've tried a few shots out of it so far.
It is an IC/IC choked gun with 26" barrels.
It will go out again soon.
I really want to see how it handles on clays.
