Built by Miroku in Japan, it features a 26 inch Special Steel field barrel with a ventilated matte rib and the Invector-Plus choke system.

Condition
Overall Condition: Poor condition.
Bore Condition: Poor - Noticeable dirt, stains, significant corrosion or damage.
Specific Condition Notes: The gun is completely disassembled. The firearm will not fire when the safety is disengaged. The action release gets stuck in the downward position even after racking, which prevents the pump from staying forward. It will need to be reassembled and repaired by a qualified gunsmith prior to any attempt to fire. Gunsmith special sold as is.
