Kimber Valier Grade II Shotgun The Kimber Valier Grade II Shotgun is a light, lively and properly scaled bird gun in a 20 gauge with a 26 inch barrel. Traditionally featured, the Valier II has double triggers, fixed IC/M chokes and an English stock with a generous 14.75 inch length of pull to a 24 lines-per-inch hand-checkered butt. Barrels join and lock into the receiver in the proven chopper lump system.
The Valier Grade II is stocked with grade four Turkish walnut with strong character, includes automatic ejectors, and accepts 3 inch magnum shells. The Valier Grade II also has gold line cocking indicators, splinter forend with slight Schnabel, articulated front trigger and niter blue triggers, pins, and hammers.
The compete receiver as well as trigger guard, lever, bolsters barrel border, and forend furniture are hand-engraved in a classic scroll pattern with coverage of 50 percent. Wood is hand-checkered at 24 lines-per-inch, then finished with hand-rubbed oil. Barrels wear Belgian rust blue. Valier shotguns are wonderfully checkered, finished and engraved by hand, and will serve a lifetime. Then, when the time is right, they will stand ready to pass to another generation.
