There are two things I hate about this auction listing, and one thing I really love.
Hate: The lousy pics and the “As Is” terms. Love: The gun (or what I can see of it)
The gun pictures is a 20 gauge Beretta AS-EL, one of the best OUs Beretta has built. Beretta started making their AS-line of boxlock over & under shotguns in 1949 and they continued turning them out into the 1960s.
Beretta built these as hunting guns, and the company offered 2 gauges (12g and 20g) and three grades (ASE, ASEL, and ASEELL). Each grade featured hand engraving and all models were build with the quality that has made these doubles so great.

Beretta AS-20EL 20 gauge Over Under. Wood is nice except for a 2-3 inch hairline crack on the fore end. The buttpad is not original to the gun. Overall the gun is approximately 80%.
