Ed, that’s great news. Your persistence has really paid off. A Pigeon grade Model 50 with conclusive evidence of factory engraving and carving. The whooshing sound you hear is the market value of your gun taking off.

"I have seen wicked men and fools, a great many of both, and I believe they both get paid in the end, but the fools first." -- David Balfour, narrator and protagonist of the novel, Kidnapped, by Robert Louis Stevenson.
Hmmm, I just might be the guy that suggested touching base with Pauline
Congrats mate, you got a nice one, irrefutable documentation is a rarity on old Winchester shotguns. I’ve
been reminded a number of times that Winchester burned the records…on purpose. Pauline’s custom shop documentation is a treasure.
