Rib reads “470 N.E.” in gold. Front sight is machined filed and scroll engraved on ramp. Right barrel reads “AUG. LEBEAU-COURALLY A LIEGE – BELGIUM”. Left barrel reads “MADE FOR W.L. MOORE & Co SCOTTSDALE AZ”. Barrel flats marked “AUG. LEBEAU”, “FABI A LIEGE”. Bottom of barrels marked ".470 NITRO EXPRESS", "2700 BAR", and with proofs. Bottom rib with “45458” and loop for sling. Reinforced and case colored sidelock action with hidden third fastener, set disk strikers, side clips is also designated with gold-washed lifting bars and golden cocking indicators. The action is elegantly engraved with scrolls and floral bouquets. Bolsters engraved with leaf petals. Engraving orchestrated by “S. MASSIN” (signed alongside triggers). Double triggers are fire blued, and front trigger is articulated. The double rolled edged trigger guard is case color hardened with matched engraving and extends to a full length bottom strap.

LEBEAU-COURALLY” motor case. Case with target and paperwork. Paperwork stating “BEST IN SHOW Gold Medal Concour d’Elegance of Fine Guns”. Rifle also comes with sling. CONDITION: Excellent.
