IMO this is a very nice gun for the money. I am offering a Charles Osborne, serial number 83817. As I mentioned the barrels are 30", choked F/F with no dents, dings or pits. The LOP is 14 7/8" (14 1/4" to wood and a 5/8" leather faced Silvers pad) with a 1 1/2" drop at comb and a 2 1/2" drop at heel. See the pictures, if you have any question please feel free to drop me an email: msland@mc.net The price is $2500.















Reproof done prior to 1954--no "tons" mark. You would not see a date stamp on a reproof from that period.




Sometime in its past an owner had swivels installed. Whoever removed the posts did a nice job filling the holes. You really have to see this gun in hand, the pictures make it look worse than it really appears.





Great to be aboard the 16ga. Society,

Mike Land

Gun weighs approximately 6 1/4#s and ejectors are perfectly timed. Thanks for all the interest.

This is a seriously sweet gun - if I hadn't depleted my $$$ and trade stock, it wouldn't be posted here!

Thanks Geoff, I've moved the listing on to Auction Arms. It can still be ended if purchase is made prior to receiving a bid. Good luck everyone...

Would you take a new Browning Ultra XS 28GA with 30"bbls as partial trade?
The gun is well worth 1700.00 buck on the used gun market.

Pleeeeeze! I reall;y want that 16GA w/30 inchers.

Jig, I'm afraid I don't need another shotgun. See if you can get your 28g sold and get back to me. Good luck. Mike

Bid has been made so am now unable to pull auction. Just thought I'd give everyone the heads up.
