On sides of action this scroll surrounds vignettes of deer; a stag is drinking from a pond with semi-relief wooded background on left, with stag and hind running through meadow on right. The front bottom of action depicts near full relief hare crouched under bough of tree in oval, and a spaniel closely points a huddled quail on trigger plate.

Grip checkering is slightly worn, and does not appear to be re-cut, forend checkering competently re-cut. Pad is new. Bores are excellent. Action is tight. Bbls are on face. Ejectors are in time.
