Gun Watch Posted March 14, 2019 Report Share Posted March 14, 2019 Army & Navy Boxlock non ejector £195 12 gauge Shotgun Trade Seller Used - Average Condition Kettering , Northamptonshire Side by Side, Cylinder, 3/4 Choke, 28" barrels Description 14 1/4 pull to the front trigger 2 1/2 inch chambers Where do I start ! The more I look at this the more I see a Stunning Quality English Boxlock The blueing ( although thin and rust stained in places) has that Top London look about it , the trigger guard has a beautiful brown colour case hardened look about it, all the screws are beautifully blued and engraved The floor plate is beautifully blued The chequering fine and neat Top lever spring feels like it was fitted yesterday It closes like a boss ! Vacant silver escutcheon Right!!! Enough of me fondling this and getting unnecessary with thoughts of putting a ring on it , well maybe getting it left cast and keeping it Now the bad bits ! Slight ( I mean Very slight ) pit marks in both barrels Sounds bad but I’m talking one Mark in each barrel that’s visible Proofed.719 in both barrels Now reads .725 in both Not really that bad for a gun around 200 years old And as previously stated blueing is patchy and rust stained in places BARGAIN!!!
