Blued Damascus steel barrels with a single bead sight on the smooth solid rib, 2 1/2 inch chambers with extractor, and chokes measured .033/.030 inches. The casehardened rebounding hammer action is unadorned aside from the factory marking on either lock. Lightly figured, multi-point checkered splinter forend with ebony tip inlay and round knob pistol grip stock with blued steel buttplate. The included factory letter confirms the current grade, gauge, barrel length, and finish when it was shipped on May 4, 1886, to a J. G. Munroe of Buffalo, NY. J. G. Munroe was a prominent businessman in the Buffalo area and was involved in the shipping of heavy ore from Michigan's Upper Peninsula. Also includes a leather mutton leg takedown case. Stock measurements: 2 inch drop at comb; 3 1/8 inch drop at heel; 14 3/16 inch length of pull; weight 7 lbs. 13 oz.

Fine, showing 60% original brown Damascus finish, a mix of grey and brown patinas on the balance of the barrels, 30% original case colors mostly in the protected areas, some oxidation on the barrels mainly at the breech, a few scattered dings and scratches, and well-defined checkering on the wood. The case is very good. Mechanically excellent.
