Scully Posted June 18, 2015 Report Share Posted June 18, 2015 Working from home today ( ) pulling down old shed and building new one but found a little distraction along the way: It is a cased Winchester Model 23 with 20 and 28 bore barrels. 1 of 500 and not for sale under any circumstances. Nice. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No, shed is down and 'flat packed' in skip; it's amazing what you can do with a reciprocating saw and a sledge hammer. Have been up since 0510; it's an age thing.

Ah, sorry, my fault; I think there may be a misunderstanding; the gun isn't mine unfortunately. Have just read back through thread and it does indeed come across that I've given the impression I've bought it, and now I think about it the title doesn't help either. It isn't mine I'm afraid, as the owner will not sell under any circumstances unfortunately. My apologies, I didn't intend to mislead anyone. Still a cracking gun though eh?

malkiserow Posted June 18, 2015 Report Share Posted June 18, 2015 I thought you found it in the old shed being knocked down. I thought .... here we go, Harnser is behind this with his bunker bunkum Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
muffin Posted June 18, 2015 Report Share Posted June 18, 2015 Nice bit of kit US originally I think they have a lot of 2 barrel sets If you interested look up Dawsons Doubles website in US he has loads of nice 101 you never saw over this side of the pond. He also wrote the history of the model 23 and has been asked many times to write the history of the 101 He knows more about history of that era than most.
