    Drew the letter shows Beavertail. I went and pulled the article last night and this is what promoted me to ask the question. The gun has lots of the bells and whistles. S/N 129621 delivered in 1930. Reg. weight frame, PG, SST, VR, Schnabel forend, although the letter shows Beavertail. It also had a very flat Hawkins pad installed. Pad not listed but the pad seems to indicate it had been on the gun possibly since new. I replaced the pad with a Hawkins and saved the old pad. Gun is choked as I recall Skeet and Full. Condition is about 95%.
    Just curious were the Schnabel forend's noted in the manufacturing records? The forend color, fit, and finish look original to the gun.
