Whistler, E. Boxlock DTNE £250 12 gauge Shotgun Private Seller Used - Very Good Condition Rushden, Northamptonshire Side by Side, 1/4 Choke, 3/4 Choke, 30" barrels IMG_1840.JPG?1424204966 IMG_1843.JPG?1424204596 IMG_1842.JPG?1424204596 Description

 

A fine old English London Boxlock Non Ejector by E Whistler of 11 The Strand, London, made circa 1900.

This is a lovely gun that has accompanied me on many days of rough and driven shooting. Cosmetically, the blueing is a little thin at the chambers and the stock has been pinned (well) and extended, and has a small repair to a ding on the right hand side but the stock is a very pretty bit of wood.

Mechanically the gun is extremely sound, tight on its face and pit free. The chambers are 2.5 inch (65mm) and nitro proofed. It is choked at 1/4 and 3/4, providing enough choke for high driven birds when needed, and a barrel that wont smash lower or nearer birds.

It has 30 inch barrels and a LOP of 14.5 inches.

I'm truly sorry to see this lovely gun go.
