Remington Model 1889 Grade 3 Hammer-Type Side-by-Side Shotgun, #224323. 12 ga. 32" solid rib Damascus barrels have 2-3/4" chambers and are choked IM/IM. The 1889 action features lockup via dual underlugs plus doll's head rib extension, dual hammers and triggers, and simple extractors. The lockplates are unengraved except for the maker's stamp. The splinter forend and Prince of Wales round-knob pistol grip buttstock are oil-finished walnut and feature an ebony forend tip and good coverage of checkering; buttplate is missing. Mfg'd approx. 1902. Condition is good, with wood either refinished or replaced. Action closes tight but the action lever has a broken spring. Locks, triggers and hammers function correctly, as does the extractor. Approx. 50% faded Damascus finish remains, receiver has gone to a dull patina; bores are pitted. A good candidate for a restoration. Est.: $400-$500. (C&R)
