This Iver Johnson is only the second one that I have come across. The first one is a member of my collection. Hercules Grade, in 12 gauge with 30" barrels. Full and improved modified chokes. One freckle of rust on the left barrel, and the finish on the stock is somewhat orange peel texture. I am guessing it was from heat. These guns were manufactured from 1924-1935. A special run was conducted in the 1930's for Montgomery Ward. That version is the Western Field Model 53. I would certainly love to run across one of those. This gun is in great shape for a 90+ year old gun. Yes, this one can be adopted.
