Sure wish I read this before I got this gun!
A tiny bit of wood damage, but the opening lever seem to be in a good spot, may just be the rust holding it there though.

This really helps me choosing a good gun. I'm planning to buy a new one.

Re: Some tips for buying a SxS shotgun...
I was recently given another tip on how to check action tightness. Close the barrels on a sheet of paper, thus clamping the paper between the barrels the breech face (standing breech). The paper should be locked in there like a vice. If you can pull it out, it might be time to consider having the action tightened.
