I picked up the .410 and it turns out to be a 183K-A, not a 183D, which means it has an adjustable choke. Never saw anything like it.

It came with a leather case -- and the original manual and some advertising material in brown envelope. Neat!

According to the manual, it will take for 2-1/2 and 3 inch shells, which seemed odd to me for some reason. I guess cuz it didn't say anything about 2-3/4.

The Monte Carlo stock, which my friend remembered being sawed off had been reattached somewhere along the line. The mend is visible of course, but whoever did it did a pretty fair job. A slide on butt pad should cover it up nicely.

Should clean up real nice. It's another neat old gun to go with the Lefever I picked up a couple of days earlier.

Hmmm, now, I'm wondering if I should saw off the stock again for my son.

Think I'll let him try it first.
