Finding Dickson round actions with Damascus barrels that are in great condition and nitro proofed has become a difficult task. Our good friend at Dickson's, JP Daeschler graciously shared the following history on our gun. It was delivered as No. 1 of pair on 6th August 1897 to Edward Hunter Blair of Dunskey, 6th Baronet. It would certainly be interesting to research him. I wish I had more time! What strikes me about this immediately is the overall beauty, almost overwhelming. I am certainly attracted to the smokey and mysterious dark and elegant wood. When I pull my eyes away from the wood the perfect proportions present themselves to only be pulled into the fine and stunning engraving. *The dimensions are great for many Americans being near what we all grew up with , 1 11/16" at comb, and 2.5" at heel. The dimensions almost all American double guns were built too so this gun will automatically feel familiar to many of us and are likely to shoot very well. |

James McNaughton Round Action from 1901 ~ cased Round Actions 12 gauge |

| The "Other" Edinburgh trigger plate round action. These are certainly no less impressive than a Dickson from the same period. Many of these cocked the hammers with the top lever but this one I prefer as it cocks more like what we are use too, on the opening. This gun is beautifully engraved and has exceptional wood. A pad can easily be added to achieve a LOP up to 14 3/4". | |||

| A nice solid round action from France with the classic double under bite with the rising third bite these Ideal grades are known for. Note that the retractable sling is missing from the stock. Very minor pitting in the bores could be removed with about .004 back bore to be mirror. | |||
