The shape of the trigger guard.......
You can see the raised letters on the side . It is a very rare Gorden 33 caliber pin fire . Only 3 known to exist in the world and the last one sold at Christie's Auction for $420000.00 that was 3 years ago. A box of the very rare ammo went with the gun causing the very high price. Gorden was a very talented gun maker who was blind in his left eye and had lost his right hand as a child. All his guns were hand made one offs and Holland and Holland were known to say that they strived to match his quality .Even in that condition I am sure collectors would pay big bucks for it. The only thing to add to this post is it should have been posted on April 1st.
