Very nice, those little ivory inlays appear to have been very nicely done, I like them.

I looked at this gun several times, and the inlays initially put me off. Eventually they grew on me!

Inlays might be covering a repair with a screw or bolt added to the head? Reverse choked, from normal, caught my attention. You can even see this in the picture of the muzzle.

That was one of my thoughts about the inlays also. Reverse chokes also caught my attention. We will have to wait and see if it came that way from the factory.

If the inlays on the cheeks are covering a bolt, nice touch to carry it through with the small one on the forend. Also, is it just the perspective of the pic or do those barrels look shorter than 30"?

Just slapped a tape on the barrels. 30" it is.

Didn't Becker put inlays into guns he did custom work on?
