GRIFFITHS MANCHESTER'', the right lock plate is marked ''W.GRIFFITHS''. The bore is very good. Its bright with some roughness. The barrel holds a bead front sight. The stock carries a aftermarket, smooth plastic buttplate. The rifle has one rear sling loop. A very nice large bore shotgun. Antique No FFL Req - Value: 2000 to 4000
