I have seen a couple from the late 1960's and they are very cool. I would check about parts though. How is it engraved? Is it a 20 gauge?

Yeah, its definitely a sweet looking gun! Are parts tough to come by? Has some engraving, I don't exactly remeber what though, I've been looking at a bunch of O/U's. It's a 12 gauge but handles like a 20, I really like the way it feels.

my grandpa had one. Very sweet gun. Unfortunately, he sold it before he passed. I handled it, but never got to shoot it; long time ago, but I remember saying "wow" a lot............JB

The silver Snipe is an excellent gun. I own a 12. ga with Mod over Imp 28" barrels. shoots sweet. Mine was made in 1965 parts etc are not an issue and Coles gun shop in Maine is the recommended Place to send it if repairs are needed. Beretta recommeds them so that should tell you. I would love one in 20 to match my 12 and I am looking as I type
