  At $275 or so...buy it.
  IMHO, just about any gun made in the 50's and 60"s is worth more than it's later day counter-part. That gun was made by a GUNSMITH, not by an assembly line.
  Only thing is, it has the old friction ring adjustments. It may have been abused by using wrong loads or wrong settings.

  From the discription:
  
  The barrel is stamped "**" -- which I'm guessing is a choke code for modified.
  
  Two "**" is improved modified in case you were considering purchase.[;)]
  
  1= Full
  2= Imp Mod
  3= Mod
  4= IC
  5= Skeet or Cyclinder(depending on maker)

  The problem with long out of production, foreign made, orphan guns, is that if something goes south you are screwed. I have been in this position a number of times, and fortunately have been able to get the replacement parts I needed to make the guns functionable. Not everybody lucks out though, finding the parts they need at a realistic price.
