This great eight is in great condition! Still some case color left in places the gun is tight and on face. Field ready for what? I think they are legal for Turkey hunting!

Just plain fun to have in the gun room this behemoth is not a delicate flower but a very likable brut! We have enjoyed having this in the shop to show off but know it is your lucky turn to share with your friends.

This behemoth is really in quite nice condition since she is probably near 150 years old. The bores are quite bright with some light pitting but nothing to worry about as this gun has great minimum wall thickness.

*Note the great modern dimensions!

Charles Daly Prussian 10g. in excellent original condition ( G. Lindner gun) What a great classic double for a bargain price ~ All 9 1/2 pounds!
Hammerguns
10 gauge

This is a stout Prussian Daly built by G. Lindner. His guns are considered some of the best sporting guns produced by Germany during his time. I would estimate this gun to be built in the early 1890's.

This gun locks up vault tight with excellent Damascus barrels which are nice and bright with only an extremely light frost on the inside. *Note the beautiful Damascus pattern!

We don't get to see these very often as they made very few. Pigeon guns are popular now as they make a great hammer sporting clay gun.

*Note the large amount of remaining original case color on this gun indicating it has not seen much use. It certainly is very tight on face. The bores are bright and shiny.

This is a Purdey 16 look alike but even beyond that it handles beautifully like one would expect from a Purdey or a Boss. I love the 29" nitro proofed Damascus barrels with nice bores.

I see minor signs of welding on both hammers but appear strong and well done.

This gun handles so well I considered keeping it! It feels wonderful between the hands and comes up and swings like a dream.

What a cool little .410 with the heavy 3" nitro proof. This gun started life as a rook rifle in England and due to the laws there making it more difficult to own a rifle was converted to a shotgun and reproofed. It is great as that but also we have a wonderful man that by lining the barrel makes them back into a rifle again. He did a Holland rook for us into 38 special and it came out beautiful and was super accurate even at long distance. This service only runs about $400.00.

Purdey built for an American NYC socialite for quail hunting on the family Georgia Quail hunting plantation ~ Still in its original trunk maker's case
Hammerless Sidelocks
12 gauge
4782
24625
Purchased by New York City socialite Cynthia Meldrum Chapin in 1932 for the sole purpose of dove and quail hunting on her husband's Georgia estate. This gun is still, as the initials show, in its original maker's case. The stock dimensions are different now so at some point it was re-stocked and the quality of the work suggests to me it was done by Purdey.

The condition of this super light Purdey is very high with over 90% original case color and blue. What a lovely gift this gun would make to be appreciated and put in the field by another American woman! Check out the Purdey invoice where it lists Mrs. Chapins address as "38 Wall Street, New York" and the bill due was 325 pounds. A large sum for a shotgun in the middle of the great depression between the great wars. Purdey records show:

No. 24625 Completed: October 1932 For: Mrs. C.M. Chapin Description: A lightweight hammerless ejector game gun Weight: 5lb. 14¼oz. Calibre: 12-bore (2 5/8in. Case) Barrels: 26in. Whitworth Choke: True Cyl & Tight Cyl Stock: 13 5/8in. Cross-Eyed Notes: Stocked for right hand/left eye, cast off 1 3/16in. and 2 5/8in. bend at heel Finished with a leather-covered Silver’s recoil-pad, with rounded toe and sides Note in choke book: “open shooting for quail and dove”

Boss & Co. BEST with excellent barrels chambered and proofed 2 3/4"! Built in March 1898 ...see photo of ledger
Hammerless Sidelocks
12 gauge
4460
4783
Ordered in March of 1898 for a J.E. Gladstone Esquire.

So beautifully balanced when I shot this gun I could not guess the weight. It feels much lighter than what it is but swings like a dream.

This gun features new steel barrels by the maker proofed 2 3/4 oz.. These barrels were proofed at .729 and that is as they measure today.

This London best gun comes in a beautiful English trunk case in excellent condition.

If the length of pull is too long for you we can easily arrange to make it shorter to meet your needs.

I have a particular love of the Holland back action sidelocks as they are extremely ergonomic featuring a rounded action combined with high craftsmanship and balance. This example features high grade features such as high grade (royal grade) engraving and hand detachable sidelocks. Beautifully cased with tools. An exceptional Holland for a wonderful price.

Records show this gun was completed in 1901.

*For a longer length of pull the butt plate can be easily removed and replaced with a leather covered pad.

What a great Holland. Featuring hand detachable locks and great dimensions this will make a tremendous gun for the field. Very light for a 30" barreled gun and the choking is prefect for upland, exactly how I have my personal upland double choked.

This LOP may be to long for some but we can easily arrange for a pad or checkered butt to your LOP.

A very nice side lock ejector from between the wars. Powell records show this gun was built for a Capt. H. Wykeham 11 August 1919 .

The gun is tight in excellent condition and needs nothing.

*Note the choking which will put many birds in your game bag. This is almost the exact choking I use in my favorite game gun and gets excellent results and to be honest, I am a mediocre shot at best.

What a lovely London sidelock from circa 1900. F.T. Baker guns I have noted over the years tend to have exceptional engraving and this one is no exception. This gun offers excellent modern stock dimensions and chokes that will kill clays or birds with regularity.

*This gun was proofed for 2 1/2" but because for many years 2 1/2" shells were not available in America its chamber was lengthened to 2 3/4" so it could be continued to be used here in the USA. These barrels are in excellent condition.

The Holland "Climax" or "Dominion" grade sidelocks like this are a favorite of mine as they have a wonderful radiused, almost round action and tend to be very well balanced.

This example, built in the mid 1880's has great wall thickness and choking and is tight on face and field ready. There is some very light pitting or hazing in the barrels but nothing of any consequence.

*Note the beautiful English walnut stock!

Joseph Lang London Sidelock with wonderful wood and dimensions
Hammerless Sidelocks
12 gauge

A beautiful high-grade London sidelock with tight and excellent steel barrels and stunning wood. Need I say more? This gun has near perfect choking for most wild bird upland hunting.

Normally this gun would be in the 6-8K range but due to some very minor surface pitting in places on the action (see the pictures, super minor) we can offer this beauty for only 4600.00. A super London high grade sidelock at almost a boxlock price. For the hunter that wants a high-quality gun that he or she is not afraid to take in the field this is a super opportunity.

After seeing my write up on this gun received this email from our famous hunting/naturalist gun writer friend concerning this gun:

Wow Kirby, What a beautiful gun. I love Lang guns. You forgot to mention in the write up that it is stocked to the fences, and has absolutely perfect chokes for a game gun. Cheers, George

This is a very nice English between the wars (~1927) sidelock for a super price. Don't be put off the by the extension or the long length of pull as we can remove the extension and have a checkered butt done or a pad added instead of the extension for a very nominal charge to achieve a LOP that will work for you.

This gun being near 100 years old and still retain over 50% original case color is remarkable. It handles well and is tight on face with excellent bores.

*Note the excellent choking for upland birds which I will guarantee will put more birds in your bag!

Arthur Conyers of Blanford ~ Check out the lovely wood and engraving
Hammerless Sidelocks

An enchanting sidelock from Blanford, a village in Dorset in the south coastal region of England. Our gun was probably built between 1910 and 1920. It is of very high quality and is tight and field ready. I appreciate the quality which was immediately evident from the first moment it was placed in my hands. An exceptional value for an English high grade sidelock priced low only because of its lesser-known name.

Arthur Conyers is a very old (established 1868) gunmaker/shop in Blanford who are still in business today but now specialize in the new generation of hunting air rifles.

This small maker claims they have been in business since 1795! A well-made sidelock that won't break the bank compared to buying one of the big four London makers.

This gun features wonderful engraving and a Purdey style hidden third bite. Note the Long LOP extendable with a pad to near 16".

The triggers are a bit soft for my liking but useable. We could recommend a gunsmith to crispen them up if they are not to your liking.

Arrizabalaga (Pedro) Quality Sidelock with many features and at a great price
Hammerless Sidelocks
12 gauge

Lots of features on this quality Spanish sidelock. Chopperlump barrels, hand detachable locks, bushed firing pins, Purdey hidden third bite, side clips, and articulated front trigger. Add to this near 100% case color and blue on the barrels and you can see this fine shotgun has seen very little use. For a Spanish gun it is light, almost as light as the English sidelock it copied.

The elephant in the room on this gun is why does it have a minimum wall of .019 in the right barrel? This is measured about 8" from the muzzle on top of the right barrel, a point in the bore where the load is reaching maximum velocity and pressure is dropping rapidly. The bores measure .029 in both barrels which is as it was built so it appears this minimal wall is original. The answer to the question is, as in many of the best British guns, the makers understood that on the last half of the barrels the pressures are quite low and they were trying to keep the balance of the guns between the hands so are often struck quite thin where the pressure is low.

Cogswell & Harrison Sidelock with wonderful engraving and quality ~ Long LOP

This is a very nice well made English sidelock. Built circa 1913 this shotgun is tight and field ready. For those of us that understand the beauty of open chokes you will appreciate this shotgun.

I see some (just a few) very minor pitting in places inside both barrels. The barrels are basically very bright and clean.

According to A&N existing records this fine sidelock was completed April 9th 1934 by W.C. Scott and sold to J.E. Sealy Esquire.

This gun is tight on face and field ready. A great value in an English sidelock with good stock dimensions and super wall thickness.

Army & Navy Sidelock built by W.C. Scott ~ a well-made gun at a great price
Hammerless Sidelocks

Existing Army & Navy records show this sidelock was built in 1908 by W.C. Scott. Great dimensions and I really like how this gun opens and closes. It feels like a gun that would be appreciated in the field.

*You know this old girl has seen plenty of service and she does show some scars in handling marks in the wood and blue thinning in places. She would be a great candidate for a light restoration or used and appreciated as is. This gun I noted when first operated did not have auto ejectors. I really like this as having auto ejectors is really one more thing to go wrong and truly in the upland field unnecessary. I will get some flack over this, I am sure! I will agree to disagree.

Wm. Atkinson & Sons~ Lancaster, Kendel, and Morecambe ~ A lovely 30" barreled English sidelock for a great price
Hammerless Sidelocks
12 gauge
3465
3155
This gun features nitro proofed 30" barrels with mirror bores. Other features include auto ejectors, tight on face barrels to action, and excellent modern stock dimensions cut from a very nice piece of English walnut. The left choke is tighter than many (like me) might want it but remember we can have chokes opened very reasonably. Also, if you need a longer LOP we can provide excellent English style leather covered pads up to 1".

This is a very nice example of an English sidelock. It is well balanced and feels great between the hands as any well made gun should.

I did not know much of this maker so I did some sleuthing on internet and actually found quite a lot:

Built between 1901 and 1905 by address's on rib William Atkinson was the son of Joseph Atkinson of Lancaster. He was born in 1851. By 1871 William had joined his father in the business in Lancaster, but in about 1874 he opened his own business at 52 Stricklandgate, Kendal, Westmoreland; in about 1878 this moved to 8 All Hallows Lane. There may have been a branch of the firm in Preston. In 1874 William and his wife (Eleanor b. 1850) had a son, Joseph Harvey Atkinson, and in 1876 another, Arthur Falder Atkinson (both born in Kendal), they both worked in the business as gunmaker's assistants, there were also had two daughters born in Kendal, Edith (b.1873) and Maud (b.1878) who appear to have worked in the business. In 1881 Joseph Atkinson retired and William took over the business in Lancaster re-naming it William Atkinson. In about 1885 the firm moved to 20 Market Street, between 1890 and 1901 they took over the adjoining premises at 18 Market Street. Between 1890 and 1894 the business in Kendal moved to 58 Highgate. Joseph Atkinson died in the late 1890s, and in 1900 the firm Lancaster business was re-named William Atkinson & Sons. By this time the firm had a substantial trade in bicycles. In about 1901 a branch was opened at 11 Skipton Street, Morecambe, Lancashire. This was probably run by one of the sons, it appears to have closed in about 1905. Between 1901 and 1905 the Kendal business became known as Atkinson & Griffin, it appears to have ceased trading in 1925. Between about 1905 and 1909 the firm in Lancaster occupied premises in North Road. In about 1935 the firm moved to 26 Market Street, Lancaster, but the Lancaster business appears to have closed in 1940. In 1955 Thomas Atkinson & Sons was recorded at 19a Stricklandgate, Kendal. Thomas Atkinson was certainly related, perhaps only distantly. The firm appears to have closed in about 1985.

A very nice sidelock for the price of a boxlock due to the less known name. Carr Brothers started in 1878 on Cloth Hall St., Huddersfield, Yorks. They moved a few times around Huddersfield over the years and seem to have closed there doors in 1913.

Great dimensions and LOP could be made up to near 14 7/8" or less if a pad were added.

P. Webley Sidelock with nice dimensions ~ A bit thin in the tooth but in proof and priced accordingly ~ Great features and free shipping!

P. Webley was the company that joined with W.C. Scott to form Welbey and Scott, one of the largest English gun makers in the English gun making history. In my experience the P. Webley guns were all of very high quality.

This gun is in proof and thin minimum walls are out near the muzzle where they should be and where there is very little pressure. We have priced this gun attractively for this reason and if you are interested in this gun, I suggest you call and buy it so you can examine it in person and take advantage of our five day inspection and free return shipping if it does not meet your needs for any reason.

*Note the weight which is the same as most English 16g. guns.

Army & Navy Sidelock by W.C. Scott with great bones and a worthy project
Hammerless Sidelocks

This gun is discounted due to the light greying and fine pitting on both locks and a little on the barrels and a gunsmith pointed out to us recently that the ribs need to be relayed as the barrels do not ring well. The bones of this gun are good with great wall thickness and bores on the barrels which are tight on face. A rib relay with new black is about 800.00 via Dan Morgan, our gunsmith. Thirty-inch guns this light with good dimensions are hard to come by so this gun is worth the time and money to make into a great field gun.

EM Reilly & Co. 12g ~ completed in 1883 and later nitro proofed ~ An Excellent little cased English double

This gun despite its years is tight on face and has bright bores. I can see some very light and minimal pitting in places that is hardly noticeable. This gun is light and has great dimensions for a gun with 30" barrels and a nice long stock. The extension appears to be Ebony. In its makers vintage case this a great package.

*I almost forgot to mention that being completed in 1883 it qualifies as antique and can be shipped direct.

W. W. Greener boxlock with 2 3/4" original Nitro proofs ~ A very original non ejector with excellent barrels dating from 1920
Boxlocks

A nice vintage Greener that has excellent bores and is tight on face. While probably could use a new black on the barrels soon it was nice to find an English double with original 2 3/4" proofs that was in nice condition and field ready. The name and address on the rib is very sharp and crystal clear and obviously never seen any sanding or re-blacking since new.

The barrels are proofed at 12 (730 to 740) and both still measure .730 so have never ever even seen a polish! Greener's book dates this gun between the great wars at 1920.

Mortimer and Son ~ George Street, Edinburgh, classic vintage Scottish boxlock from 1895 ~ No FFL needed, can ship direct
Boxlocks
12 gauge

This Scottish gun from Edinburgh while appearing worn on the outside is actually a fairly stout and strong gun. The barrels are tight on face (they ring beautifully) and the bores quite nice being bright and free of any heavy pitting. What there is extremely fine and could easily be polished out if desired.

The gun was nitro proofed in 1968 according to the proof marks on the flats.

Obviously ready for the field as is but this would be a fun one to give a new oil finish to the wood and with a light pick up of the checkering. I would have the barrels browned by Buck Hamlin to bring back their former beauty.

*For those that will ask: That is a scratch on the surface of the stock on the right side of the butt stock near the butt, not a crack. It would be gone if properly oil finished.

Tight with beautiful barrels inside and out this is a nice example. Like a Purdey, these guns are known to be hard to close as you compress the springs as you close the gun. In that regard this gun is a perfect example as it is hard to close. I found one must hold the barrels farther out than with a regular double to give one more leverage and give the gun a "snap' to close it. I would not say it is really easy but is something that can certainly be learned. People with weak wrists should not buy this gun! :)

Great choking and a good LOP for many.

Having no cast either way allows this gun to be shot from either way, left shoulder, or right. The gun is tight on face. The stock extension can obviously be removed and replaced with a recoil pad to get most LOP's. The safety feels a little gummy so I suspect could use a good cleaning. Priced as is as we have no time to do this but we can recommend a gunsmith we have locally, or you could do it yourself. This gun was sleeved by Westley Richards.

We found this in the back of the vault and thought we should find a home for it. Actually tight on face and in proof. The bores are bright and shiny. The minimal wall thickness is thicker than most in fact very thick for this vintage shotgun.

That's the good points! Sadly the barrels in the second half towards the muzzle have considerable pitting probably caused by being put away wet in a case. The stock has numerous handling marks. The wood could be easily refinished but striking the barrels you may only get about 80% of the pitting. Or you might get it all. It is very functional as is so I would use it as a rainy day gun and do nothing to it!

This is one of the most unique side by side shotguns we have ever had in the shop. Many have heard of the "Kerstan" rib extension extra bite. This patent is still in use today by Merkel on their best over and unders. This Kerstan marked example is a double Kerstan bite on a horizontal profile. An extremely strong and unusual prewar 16g. side by side that weighs under 6 lbs. but carries 29" Krupp barrels.

The condition is quite good although there is some light pitting in each bore. I have shot this gun and I have to say it handles extremely well. This is from my personal collection, and I often referred to this gun as my "Hammer head shark" gun!

What a nice little 16g. boxlock from an old maker from Cambridge England. featuring at least 75% original case color the gun is tight on face. It features bright bores and modern stock dimensions good for many. The left barrel choke is full which might be too tight for some, but this can be easily opened to whatever one would want for very little money.

*Some interesting history on Gallyon : https://www.gallyon.com/heritage

*There is a small amount of pitting on the outside of the left barrel. Nothing of consequence but if I don't mention it someone will criticize me for leaving that out. I have added a photo here that makes it look worse than it is so one can see what I am talking about.

Built on a unique but 100% trigger plate action this is a gun that I have always been intrigued with. I like everything about them except for the safe which is located to the right and left of the trigger guard. It functions fine but I don't find them as ergonomic as the top safe.

So, despite the safety, I still shoot, promote and get excited about these guns as they are worth having, shooting and appreciating due to their great balanced round action and features. This grade and higher feature a rising bite third fastener similar to the coveted Rigby rising third bite. The pull back lever behind the trigger guard opens the gun and is extremely ergonomic. It is out of the way and very easy to operate.

I just returned from shooting wild pheasant and quail in eastern Oregon and I cannot tell you how pleased I was on how my little 16g. performed with 7/8 oz. of shot. If I did my part they dropped dead. No flapping, no running. This little gun, perhaps with a little tuning of the chokes, would make an ideal upland bird gun.

This gun was built between 1896 and 1900 so am researching it and if it was made before 1899 we will be able to ship direct to most states instead of to an ffl.

These Damascus barrels have been blued but would look stunning if browned for pattern. I would recommend Buck Hamlin. He does awesome work and is timely.

This 16g is tight on face and features modern dimensions. Priced low as there is internal rust pitting in the last eight inches of the bores but the first 20 inches (where all the pressure is) is in great condition. The gun is tight and other than the pitting presents no problems. The LOP obviously could be lengthened to over 15" with a pad.

What a great little double gun. C.S. Rosson was a great maker in Norwich England on Rampant Horse street. Wonder how that street got its name?

This gun was built between the great wars in 1933. The LOP could be lengthened with a recoil pad to make the LOP almost 14 5/8". The right side of the action the wood has been properly reinforced with dowels to strengthen the stock.

I have hunted with and I guess will admit to collecting these Manufrance French trigger plate double guns for years. They still fascinate me. This great example features chopperlump barrels and the retractable in-stock sling which works perfect. The Rifled barrel is excellent and sharp. The shotgun barrel appears mirror when examined from the breech but when inspected from the muzzle I can see some light pitting in places. Only cosmetic but I want you all to know it is there.

This gun is in very nice condition with much original case color remaining. I am told you can shoot shot out of the rifled barrel also so can still be used as a double barrel shotgun.

Featuring near 90% original case color and near perfect bores this is a stunning little hammer double rifle.

See scan of chamber cast and measurements. Keep in mind that chambers are usually slightly over size to actual brass dimensions to prevent sticking.

Kreighoff Drilling in 12ga x 9.3x72R ~ Bright bores and sharp rifling
Drillings, Double Rifles, and Rifles
Caliber
4857

This is a pre WWII Sempert and Kreighoff drilling in good condition and field ready. We do have some of this brass in stock and I believe some dies also for reloading for sale here in the shop.

The 9.3x72R was before WWII the most common center fire boar/deer hunting cartridge in Europe. I have heard it said it is the "30-30" of Europe as it was so common but in ballistics it is a much better brush (100 yard or under ) cartridge than the 30-30. The 180-220 grain bullets certainly throws a much better punch at about 2000fps. The bores on these drillings are typically .360 and many have found the American 35 caliber bullets work very well in these guns.

Do note that some of the commercially available ammunition has bullet dimeters of .366 should not be fired in these pre war guns. The brass can be used however and in most cases fits perfectly.

What a cool little .410 with the heavy 3" nitro proof. This gun started life as a rook rifle in England and due to the laws there making it more difficult to own a rifle was converted to a shotgun and reproofed. It is great as that but also we have a wonderful man that by lining the barrel makes them back into a rifle again. He did a Holland rook for us into 38 special and it came out beautiful and was super accurate even at long distance. This service only runs about $400.00.

Hosford and Co. Wall thickness gauge
Men's Collectibles
10 gauge
1158
This wall thickness gauge, complete with table clamping barrel vise, is the most accurate wall thickness gauge that we are aware of for the money (the next more accurate gauge is digital and costs over 2K). This gauge will measure 4 gauge through .410. It may look intimidating to use but let me assure you it is not. The secret and success of this gauge is in that the barrels are easily held suspended by the table clamped barrel vise. The gauge, once zeroed is slid over the barrel and quite easily moved back and forth while one just watches the gauge to read the actual barrel wall thickness. There is no math to do. The ingenious barrel holder allows you to easily rotate the barrels allowing you access to areas of the barrel near the ribs. On the vertical gauge this is quite difficult but on this gauge very easy. This gauge also has the feature of a finer pointed tip on the gauge allowing you to measure inside many pits. I cannot stress the value of having a quality wall thickness gauge if one is a serious collector and purchaser of high end double guns. THE FIRST GUN YOU REFUSE AS A RESULT OF USING THIS GAUGE PAYS FOR THE GAUGE MANY TIMES OVER. If you do not understand the significance of the last sentence, please reread it. We will not make any significant money selling these gauges. It is our intent to have educated buyers. It is our belief that our client’s best interests are also ours. Most all of our best clients already have this gauge but I would like to see all of our clients with one. These gauges were designed and hand built by Jon Hosford, a natural engineer, double gun lover, collector, and wing shooter (not to mention his appetite for fine red wine, scotch, and good food!)

See Jon's gauge in use and learn how to use it on youtube by typing in a search on youtube: “Hosford & Co., Shotgun barrel gauge, Part 1” or clicking this url: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1jQZn4kohH4

This is a large vault out of an old bank near us. We have been storing it inside for years thinking we would build it into a new building for our business. We have decided this will not happen so need to move this along to someone that will use it. This would make an awesome walk in gun/valuables safe or use the door and frame for a walk in vault room. This is a bargain and am selling it for basically what we have in it as we need the space. It is open and unlocked. The combination can be changed by a professional locksmith we were told when we purchased it over ten years ago. It is very heavy being 4K to 6k pounds so a heavy duty truck with a fork lift would be needed to pickup. condition: good make / manufacturer: Dibold locks size / dimensions: 49.75" W x 40" D x 86" H

Mortimer and Son ~ George Street, Edinburgh, classic vintage Scottish boxlock from 1895 ~ No FFL needed, can ship direct
Rust & Dust
12 gauge

This Scottish gun from Edinburgh while appearing worn on the outside is actually a fairly stout and strong gun. The barrels are tight on face (they ring beautifully) and the bores quite nice being bright and free of any heavy pitting. What there is extremely fine and could easily be polished out if desired.

The gun was nitro proofed in 1968 according to the proof marks on the flats.

Obviously ready for the field as is but this would be a fun one to give a new oil finish to the wood and with a light pick up of the checkering. I would have the barrels browned by Buck Hamlin to bring back their former beauty.

*For those that will ask: That is a scratch on the surface of the stock on the right side of the butt stock near the butt, not a crack. It would be gone if properly oil finished.

Having no cast either way allows this gun to be shot from either way, left shoulder, or right. The gun is tight on face. The stock extension can obviously be removed and replaced with a recoil pad to get most LOP's. The safety feels a little gummy so I suspect could use a good cleaning. Priced as is as we have no time to do this but we can recommend a gunsmith we have locally, or you could do it yourself. This gun was sleeved by Westley Richards.

Army & Navy Sidelock by W.C. Scott with great bones and a worthy project

This gun is discounted due to the light greying and fine pitting on both locks and a little on the barrels and a gunsmith pointed out to us recently that the ribs need to be relayed as the barrels do not ring well. The bones of this gun are good with great wall thickness and bores on the barrels which are tight on face. A rib relay with new black is about 800.00 via Dan Morgan, our gunsmith. Thirty-inch guns this light with good dimensions are hard to come by so this gun is worth the time and money to make into a great field gun.

The gun is slightly off face so would recommend a rejoin soon. We can refer you to who can do you a good job. We have priced this gun very low to move as is.

A cool vintage English double hammer gun with nitro proofs. The upper rib is loose and needs to be re-soldered. The gun is extremely tight. The bores are very bright and shiny with only some very minor pitting.

A fun restoration project or would look great as is over the rock fireplace in your hunting lodge. Price includes shipping direct to your address in the lower states.

H & T.C. Godfrey of Saffron Walden ~ 16g. with 28" barrels
Rust & Dust

This 16g is tight on face and features modern dimensions. Priced low as there is internal rust pitting in the last eight inches of the bores but the first 20 inches (where all the pressure is) is in great condition. The gun is tight and other than the pitting presents no problems. The LOP obviously could be lengthened to over 15" with a pad.

Saffron Walden is a market town about 15 miles south of Cambridge in Essex. See more at: https://saffronwalden.gov.uk/

Nice little boxlock 28 (these are very rare). Priced right due to significant pitting in the bores which I don't think can be removed. The gun is tight and is in proof.

Dart is priceless and covers the dog and bird hunting aspects of Vintagedoubles. He is our hero in the field, being an incredible pointer with the best nose of any dog I have ever hunted over. We seem to have a problem keeping him off the kitchen counters if there are any tasty morsels left there.... ....No one is perfect!

I think the pictures will tell you all you need to know as they show the excellent condition this English boxlock is in. Great dimensions for many and zero cast so south paws can shoot this one too!

This Coggy 20 is very clean and is tight and handles well. Note all the remaining case color and blue.

The stock has 1/4" cast at the comb as at the heel to accommodate a shorter neck and wider face like mine. It comes up great on me! To bad I am hooked on 16g. guns or it would be one for me to keep.
