*G&H's descriptions leave a tad bit to be desired for certain, anyone interested in this rifle should send it to D. Yale or K. Eversull to check out prior to. I can see several condition issues just by the pictures alone, to call this specimen "superb condition" is a bit of a reach. Still, I like it very much, no doubt there's history all over this one. Just needs some TLC..
What a lovely rifle!
