The gun includes a second barrel set which measures 26 inches and is chambered
for 3 inch .410 bore shells and features automatic ejectors and choke constrictions of .003/.002 inches. The extra barrel has matching engraving at the breech and a second equally beautiful forend with matching shoe engraving, showing off Steduto ability to not just create this work once, but to perfectly match it to another piece that can be used interchangeably. Barrel and stock measurements (U/O): bore diameter nine inches from the breech both measured at .549 inches; choke constriction .003/.006 inches; minimum wall thickness .025/.030 inches; 1 1/2 inch drop at comb; 2 1/8 inch drop at heel; 14 3/8 inch length of pull; weight 6 lbs. 1 oz.
CONDITION: Excellent overall, retaining 99% original blue, gold, and enamel finishes with slight oxidation beneath the “1” forend and otherwise limited handling evidence and sharp checkering on the stock and forend. The extra barrel set is also excellent. Mechanically excellent. This is an opportunity to own an incredibly fine piece of art and pay tribute to our favorite hunting partners!
Provenance: The Robert M. Lee Collection.
Estimate: 80,000 - 120,000
