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

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.

Circa 1896 this sidelock can be shipped directly to you. I like these vintage back action sidelocks as they carry well with a very rounded frame.

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.

Nice bores on this Reilley with 2 3/4" nitro proofs!~

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.
