No it is not mine but I can buy it. A lady wanted me to buy it from her but I don't know what it is worth. Her late husband told her only a couple were made but I see there were more than that. It's kind of unique that the serial number is exactly an even hundred thousand increment. So did an engraver ask Remington to sell them a blank receiver with let's say a 500,000 serial number or was it available from the Remington custom shop. I think she said her husband paid $3000 for it. I don't want to steal it from her but I don't want to pay retail for it either...
Hey shotgun you should buy this gun, its got to be worth $2500/$2800 you could pay that for a D grade and this looks to be F grade. Although my D grade guns the engraving is more sharp cut not rolled. Very nice gun. What's the wood like?
barrel length and choke?
