Single 8 bore shotgun by Tolley/Parkinson of Dublin £1700.


Recommended Posts

(The original ad for this seems to have lost its description, so this is a relist.)

Like most big bores of the period, this single 8 was made by Tolleys, and retailed by Parkinson Gunsmiths, Dublin, c.1870.

42" Damascus barrel, 3.25" chamber, non- rebounding hammer action. Jones Patent Underlever. Reproofed for nitro. Brass Snapcap included.

The standard length walnut stock has been beautifully refinished. Horn-tipped fore-end.

Weight 10lb, superbly balanced and a joy to handle.

I haven't used the gun for some years, and now hold it off-licence. In overall very good, usable condition.
