The gun was fully restored for 1300. That included strip & clean, barrels, wood, case color and pad.
The key with any restoration in my opinion ... |

Those are after/before on a similar gun as yours, that's a 16 gauge Francotte Knockabout. I really don't see how restoring the gun ruined anything, it breathed life back in the gun. It's not like yo ... |

It is my belief that the next wave of Spanish guns will come from Turkey. The country of Turkey has embraced technology as part of it's religion. In the years to come we will see a lot of nice guns ... |
