World War II U.S. Contract Savage Model 720 Semi-Automatic Shotgun

One of approximately 15,000 riot and training shotguns manufactured by Savage for the U.S. military during World War II, primarily for use by military and industrial guards and for aerial gunnery training, both freehand and in elaborate simulator mounts. "U.S." marked left of receiver with "P" above a flaming bomb proof on both the barrel and receiver, matching serial number "80176" on bottom of the barrel, "****" (improved cylinder) choke marking, 2 3/4" inch chamber, 14 1/4" length of pull. Added copper grip cap with a cursive name inscribed that appears to read "Lee Owen".

ConditionVery fine with most of the original finish, and a few handling marks. Forearm is also very fine, buttstock is good as re-oiled, with re-glued cracked sections visible at the top of the butt and at the toe, and scattered light scratches and handling marks. Mechanically excellent.
