Hi Rajesh,
I held off commenting here to see what others thought. I agree with Rick. The lock plate looks (from the pics) to be a later replacement and lacks the patina of the rest of the lock fittings. Also the silver decorative domes appear to be only on one side of the stock, with brass?? flat head nails on the other. Nice gun though and should clean up well. Some pics of a similar gun in my collection. Stu |

Thanks my friend Kubur,
wanted to buy a good example of this type,but a dealer based in France said in France itelf these moukhalas sell for euros 1500-1800 and sought after.,so when one came my way locally I made sure I don't loose out as importing guns is time consuming and shipping very expensive into New Zealand Merci Rajesh Last edited by BANDOOK; 26th August 2018 at 11:57 AM. |

IMHO potentially a very attractive piece with a bit of TLC. Stu |
