*ABBIATICO & SALVINELLI BEST SIDELOCK EJECTOR .410 GAME GUN BONSI ENGRAVED WITH CASE.

*ABBIATICO & SALVINELLI BEST SIDELOCK EJECTOR .410 GAME GUN BONSI ENGRAVED WITH CASE. SN 447. Cal. .410. 3″ Chambers. 26-3/8″ Chopper lump bbls are engraved “Abbiatico & Salvinelli” on raised, concave game rib. Bbl flats are stamped “A & S” with SN and 2005 Italian proofs. Coin finished sidelock action features non-automatic safety (SAFE inlaid in gold), bushed strikers, and single non-selective trigger. Action and lockplates are engraved with large looping scrolled acanthus with interesting side-on floral bouquets, with a background of small scroll. This interesting engraving pattern is the work of Diego Bonsi, whose signature appears on trigger plate. Bottom of action has fine Bulino representation of pair of flushing quail with meadow background. Signature of M. Shidini is also on trigger plate, who is most probably responsible for this scene. Striking, dramatically marbled, and fully figured European walnut straight grip buttstock measures 15-1/8″ over checkered wood butt, and features drop points, point pattern checkering, and vacant gold oval on toe line. Matching long splinter ejector forend has Anson release. Bore diameter at muzzles: left -.405, right -.408. Wall thickness: left -.040, right -.042. Drop at heel: 2-1/16″, drop at comb: 1-5/16″. Weight: 5 lbs. 15 oz, LOP 15-1/8″. Dark blue ABS Famars marked case with tan leatherite trim and three combination locks, is lined with dark green velvet, and contains green Famars wallet with proof certificate and instructions for setting combination locks, along with bags for action and bbls. CONDITION: Excellent, essentially as new, with some slight rub marks on breechface from extractors. It appears to have been fired very little since proof. There are a few of the faintest of handling marks on buttstock. Ejectors and trigger function flawlessly. Case is excellent. 4-46505 MGM74 (22,500-26,500)
