I picked up a Laurona SBS 12 guage about a year or so ago for dove/quail hunting.
Its marked
'Sears Roebuck and Co Chicago Ill
Laurona EIBAR (Espana)'
and then the other barrel
'Made in Spain
Mod 153 512350 12-guage 2 3/4'
Its hand checkered and hand engraved, or at least it appears to be hand-done. It doesnt have any blemishes in the engraving, but you can see that its a little shaky in some areas, and the checkering sometimes goes outside the lines a bit.. Usually what you would see in a hand done piece.
I bought it unfired for $300 from a gun show, and its been a great shotty since then. The triggers are nice and clean.. it has a full choke on the left and modified on the right. Bluing is perfect and the only blemishes are a couple dings on the stock, and the poly has come loose in a small spot on the forestock.
Im looking for any info I can find on the gun. Ill get a camera here in a bit and post some pics.
Thanks
