John Maiden Posted June 9, 2005 Report Share Posted June 9, 2005 (edited) I need to make room in my gun cabinet so I reluctantly have to sell my J.Morin Side by Side BLNE. This gun is very clean (as are all my guns ! ), has 70mm / 23/4" chambers, 32" barrels made by Krupps, Half and Full chokes, very interesting cocking indicators (lets you see if chamber is cocked, at a glance with small posts on top of action) The wood work is very clean and has a cheek piece stock with semi pistol grip. The action has wildfowling scenes on the receiver. It may have been made for wildfowling. Overall a very strong gun, very good lock up and no play anywhere. This gun is quite unusual, I have only seen one other that looked the same and that was a Merkel priced at £750, at Arthur Conyers in Blandford, Dorset. I'm selling this one for only £150, if you are interested give me a ring on 07836 525330 Edited June 10, 2005 by John Maiden Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John Maiden Posted June 11, 2005 Author Report Share Posted June 11, 2005 Still for sale, but I'm putting in a local gunshop as he is keen to put it in his rack SOR. I need the space, plus it will get seen more. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dodeer Posted June 11, 2005 Report Share Posted June 11, 2005 Sounds ideal for a bit of duck or goose shooting or using as a fence post! Sounds a half decent for gun for the money. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John Maiden Posted June 11, 2005 Author Report Share Posted June 11, 2005 Would be the most elaborate fence post you'd see ! I have had a few phone enquiries today, so I won't take it into RFD just yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Reado Posted June 21, 2005 Report Share Posted June 21, 2005 Hay John I shoot from the left..... It looks like the gun you have on offer is a right hander.. Nice looking SBS though... See you at the three lions a week Sat.. Andy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John Maiden Posted July 1, 2005 Author Report Share Posted July 1, 2005 Shame 'bout that. However it has no cast and would suit a left or right handed shooter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

John Maiden Posted July 24, 2005 Author Report Share Posted July 24, 2005 A swap of similar value may be possible if you're close to Dorset. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

John Maiden Posted September 25, 2005 Author Report Share Posted September 25, 2005 Hi Hammergun, As far as I know Fisherman Mike has put his name on it and agreed a price.

John Maiden Posted October 9, 2005 Author Report Share Posted October 9, 2005 Hi Fisherman Mike. I trust you had a good trip back. When you saw the gun you seemed to know what you were looking for. I hope you've found it in that one and suits your pigeon shooting. Ironic that you were one of the first to see it all that time ago. Like you said, you know the german build quality when you see it. Sorry to anyone that missed out on that one, but, I'm pleased I took Fisherman Mike at his word. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fisherman Mike Posted October 9, 2005 Report Share Posted October 9, 2005 Thanks John, Nice to meet you and your wife earlier. I am very pleased with the gun. In my eyes worth twice as much as your modern mass produced Berreta or Browning. The Italians and Japanese just cant produce quality like that. All the best, Mike.
