Iver Johnson Champion .410 Single-Shot 26"
Description
Iver Johnson Champion single-shot shotgun chambered in .410 bore, serial number 190722XI. This firearm features a 26-inch barrel, marked with full choke and forged steel construction. The barrel is blued, and the receiver shows a patina finish indicative of age. The stock and forearm are crafted from wood, displaying a smooth walnut appearance with visible handling marks. The buttplate bears the Iver Johnson logo with an owl motif. The shotgun is chambered for 2 1/2-inch and 3-inch shells as marked on the barrel. Manufacturer markings are present on the receiver, indicating production by Iver Johnson Arms & Cycle Works, Fitchburg, Massachusetts, USA.
CONDITION: The firearm exhibits evident wear consistent with age and prior use. The receiver displays a mottled patina finish with wear on the bluing of the barrel. The walnut stock and forearm show scratches, small gouges, and finish loss, particularly at the comb and along the edges, with a notable but stable crack in the forearm. The buttplate is intact with some oxidation. The bore appears smooth but may require additional cleaning to assess its full condition. Action appears functional based on external inspection, but internal assessment is recommended for final evaluation.
