Over/Under combination rifle-shotgun, by "F.WEISS PORT JERVIS N.Y." and so marked on .44 cal. rifle barrel which now appears smooth at the muzzle, both barrels are faceted at the breech for 9" then turn round, the rifle barrel with a large, added ramp sight and an adjustable rear sight. The walnut stock, with checkered wrist, mounted in German silver, backaction locks with very graceful hammers. A well-crafted piece. Used by actor Steve McQueen in "Nevada Smith" (Paramount 1966), "S318". Est.: $5,000-$10,000.
