Large, case hardened rolling block action has scrolled border engraving. Sides of breech block, locking lever and hammer are polished bright. Left side of breech block and action are proofed. Centrally hung hammer has checkered spur, and main-spring is extremely strong, in order to fire all seven bbls at once.

CONDITION: Excellent, near new. Bbl retains nearly all its original blue, silvered slightly on sharp edges. Action retains 95% vibrant original case color, silvering slightly on tangs and operating lever. Bright polished sides of breech block show some darkening, left a thumb print. Bores are very fine, shiny with strong rifling, and some pinprick pitting. These guns are extremely scarce in any condition.
