CONDITION: Excellent, retaining nearly all its orig finish, with a number of minor marks on bbls. Action retains essentially all of its bright coin finish with no noticeable mars. Stocks retain nearly all of their fine oil finish, with a number of minor handling marks from normal field use. Action is tight. Bbls are on face. Bore is bright and shiny, with evidence of a dent being raised on bottom bbl, 8″ from muzzle. Trigger works. Ejectors are in time. Case leather is slightly darkened and there are a number of minor marks and scuffs. Handle and straps are fine. Interior cloth is excellent, as are label and accessories. This fine gun has a current retail price of 18,000 euros without engraving. Mr. Pedretti’s fine work does not come cheaply. 4-46378 MGM32 (20,000-30,000)
