Happy to Cap. Bought Red the Browning 53 in 32-20 in 1992. I used it the on local whitetail the other side of the state shooting Snooky Williamson loads and a 115 gas checked lead @ 1800fps. Nice checkered wood, pistol grip and shot gun butt as they came from the factory.
In the old days of SASS she shot a button mag tube. I finally broke down and added a full length mag tube to her's for 10 round SASS stages, At that point I bought my own 53 with a button mag to hunt with.
The engraving? Local boy, Willie B. Infamous did the engraving and French grayed the receiver. He snuck it in between jobs for us as a Christmas present to Red this year. She is mighty partial to "her" guns. Including her little 20 gauge Coach gun.
She had a pair of 32-20 ASM 20 years ago that I rechamebred and sold off thinking 32-20 sucked in a hand gun. Of course my hot hand loads did suck in a hand gun..then and now. The China Camp guns are new last year this time. Took me a while to back the charge off to shoot any thing remotely able to function in a hand gun. But the hot loads in her 53 would shoot one hole at 25 yards and a small deer was just meat in the pot @ 100' or under. The China Camps will do the same one hole at 25 yards. And by the sound on steel locally...no one shooting a 38 is even close to her current power factor with the pistol. Not even sure my 160gr .45 Cowboy Special loads are!

Here is another...although the wood isn't as nice. But then neither is mine
Her's is a jaw dropper. Any thing under a grand these days is a good deal it seems on a 53. I didn't pay a lot less 20+ years ago in early 1990 dollars!
