Parker Trojan Boxlock Double Shotgun

Lot # 1600 (Sale Order: 601 of 649)      

serial #231935, 16 ga on a No. 1 frame, 28” Trojan steel barrels choked improved cylinder and improved modified with very good bores showing a few raised dings in the right bore about 7” from the muzzle and scattered spots of light pitting in the left. The barrels retain 95% original blue with light silvering at the muzzle, scattered spots of light pitting and freckling, and some minor handling marks. The frame has toned to a silvery-gray case-hardened patina with generous remnant case color in the protected areas around the lever, fences, and triggerguard, and some light oxidation staining; the triggerguard retains about 60% blue with the tang toned to pewter, light edge wear, and light oxidation staining. The checkered pistolgrip walnut stock and splinter-style forend are in very good condition with some scattered light dings and handling marks, an added finish, and is fit with an added 3/4” solid recoil pad giving a 13 5/8” length of pull with drops of 1 3/4” and 2 1/2”. The address on the rib remains crisp and the barrels and forend are numbered to the gun. The shotgun locks up tight with the left barrel just a hair off-face, a bare sliver of light visible between the breech and standing breech, the lever comes to rest at center, and the shotgun features an automatic safety, double triggers, extractors, and is sighted with a lone steel bead. The shotgun appears to function well mechanically. A solid late 20’s Parker for the shotgunning enthusiast. (14A11180-9) {C&R} [Charles E. Brainard, Jr. Collection] (700/900)

German P.08 Luger S/42 Pistol By Mauser

Lot # 1601 (Sale Order: 602 of 649)      

serial #1081e, 9mm, 4” barrel with a poor oxidized bore showing faint rifling. The metal surfaces of this Soviet captured pistol retain about 95-97% German arsenal blue on the frame with scattered light oxidation, light wear and toning to plum on the ears of the frame, and a few scattered light handling marks, and the upper assembly retaining a similar amount of Soviet arsenal reapplied matte blue with a few spots toning to plum including the ejector, scattered previous light pitting the concentration of which is on the barrel, and some light handling marks and a spot or two of oxidation. The trigger, takedown lever, and magazine release show strong salt blue, the straw finish of the ejector has muted and toned to a silvery patina with pinprick pitting, and the toggle pins and sear spring retain strong fire blue. The checkered walnut grips are in good condition with softened checkering and scattered dings and handling marks, the left panel unmarked, and the right panel numbered “89” and showing a light waffenamt. Most of the metal markings remain crisp with the receiver 1936-dated, the toggle S/42-coded, the “(eagle) / 63” waffenamts and firing proof on the side of the receiver slightly softened but still easily legible, the original serial number of the frame showing attempts at cancelation with a later likely Soviet added “4381” stamped on the left side of the frame, matching the original serial number of the barrel and upper receiver, which shows a stamped “X” on the left side. Most of the small parts are numbered “81” with sideplate scratch-numbered to match, the original “77” canceled, the extractor and hold-open latch numbers obliterated, and the number on the safety tab being partially obliterated but appearing to originally read “81”; the grooved firing pin is numbered to the gun. The underside of the barrel is import marked. The pistol retains the standard open sights and appears to function well mechanically. Included is a blued-body aluminum base magazine showing a few spots of previous pinprick pitting beneath the finish, the original number ground from the base leaving only an ”(eagle) / 655” waffenamt. A solid Soviet-captured early Luger pistol for the budding collector. (14A11273-16) {C&R} (700/900)

Excellent C.S. Shattuck Single Action Pocket Revolver

Lot # 1603 (Sale Order: 604 of 649)      

serial #2944, 32 RF, 2 3/4” octagon barrel with a mostly bright about very good bore showing some scattered pinprick pitting and strong rifling throughout.

The hammer and cylinder crane show lovely vibrant case-hardened colors throughout and all markings remain crisp and clear with address along the left side barrel and patent date on the left side frame. The black checkered hard rubber grips remain in excellent condition showing a few minor handling marks and retain crisp detailing. The action seems to function well mechanically with very good timing and lock-up. (13A10826-14) {ANTIQUE} [Dr. W. Lloyd Hudson, Jr. Collection] (700/900)

Lot # 1605 (Sale Order: 606 of 649)      

serial #249268, 32 ACP, 3 3/4” barrel with a bright excellent bore. The metal surfaces of this pistol retain about 98% original dull blue showing some scattered subtle thinning under bright light and minor handling marks. There are a few tiny peculiar pinprick pits along the top of the slide that appear to be just factory imperfections, indeed these pistols toward the end of production were rather more hurried in their production due to waning interest.

The black checkered hard rubber grips remain in near excellent condition showing a few scattered light handling marks. One original magazine is included and the action seems to function well mechanically. The original black paper-covered box remains in very good condition showing some scattered light flaking and scuffs with the lid corners having blown out. The lid label shows some light flaking and is pencil-numbered matching the pistol while the red end label shows some more moderate flaking, otherwise mostly intact along with the Model 1917 surcharge. The interior of the lid shows printed information and the box contains an original instruction sheet that shows some separation and tears along the folds. An excellent late production pistol with scarce original box. (13A11264-73) {C&R} [Mark Dunnavant Collection] (700/900)

Interesting Braddell & Son Bar-In-Wood Snap Action Shotgun

Lot # 1609 (Sale Order: 610 of 649)      

serial #5120, 12 ga (2 1/2”), 28” barrels choked about improved cylinder and full with partially bright bores, the left about very good with some areas of light pitting nearer the muzzle and the right fair showing some patches of more moderate pitting and small ding at the muzzle. A very peculiar shotgun from this Irish retailer, with its early bar-in-wood styling and small sideplates, the barrels retain about 92% refurbished rust blue showing some scattered mild oxidation speckling, light handling marks and small areas thinning under bright light. The barrels show later Birmingham Nitro-proofs for 2 1/2” shells and they are un-numbered older replacements that have been fitted to this gun showing a noticeable gap against the forend and the edges of the breeches slightly proud of the standing breech in some areas. The action and sideplates are a silvery pewter gunmetal patina and are embellished in full coverage with fine quality tight English filigree scrollwork and floral motifs, both sides also maker-marked. The upper tang shows “SAFE” inlaid in gold and the embellishments remain intact and mostly strong throughout. The triggerguard retains about 92% refurbished rust blue with some evidence of light polishing. The forend with Anson push button release has been lightly cleaned and checkering refreshed showing a few small repairs and light handling marks. The buttstock is a deluxe walnut replacement that is a little proud in its fit to some of the hardware and remains in very fine condition showing a few light handling marks, crisp checkering and drop points. There is a German silver monogram plate along the toe line and the wood shows some lovely grain figure throughout. The stock is rather slim at the rear and length-of-pull to the grooved black plastic buttplate is 14 3/8” with drops of 1 3/8” and 2 3/4”. Shotgun features non-automatic safety and cocking indicator pins, lock-up is by single under-bite and doll’s head extension and is actually quite solid showing a sliver of light between breech and standing breech. The action seems to function normally and a brown canvas-covered and leather-accented case by Tourbon is included showing some light scuffs and handling marks. The case is lined in maroon baize and there is a facsimile Joseph Braddell retailer label on the inside lid. An interesting and rather unique Irish shotgun. (13B11330-1) {ANTIQUE} (700/900)

serial #30125, 32 CF, 28” part round part octagon barrel with a partially bright about good bore showing some scattered areas of light pitting and oxidation with otherwise strong rifling throughout. The barrel retains about 80-85% of an older reapplied blue thinning and toning to a deep gray-brown patina under bright light and a few areas of old mild oxidation. The frame and fancy triggerguard retains about 85% original nickel finish showing some flaked areas along the left side frame and bow of triggerguard toning to a mild gray-brown patina which is blending in rather nicely with the surrounding nickel. The barrel markings are strong, the hammer and trigger have toned to a mild gray patina and the tang sight shows some lovely brilliant fire blue throughout. The Swiss-style buttplate retains about 95% original nickel finish. The smooth walnut buttstock and forend with slight schnabel remain in very fine condition, the buttstock with strong original varnish and the forend with mostly worn finish, showing some scattered light dings and handling marks. Stock fit remains very nice and there is a bit of attractive subtle grain figure near the heel. The barrel is matching the frame and locks up well and the action seems to function well mechanically. There is no rear seat and the rifle is sighted with factory short range tang sight and Lyman No. 5 combination front. The rifle appears to be chambered for the 32-35 Stevens cartridge or something similar, though a proper chamber cast should be performed to determine the exact dimensions.

Rare August Schuler Reform Sliding Stack Barrel Pistol

Lot # 1622 (Sale Order: 623 of 649)      

serial #3304, 25 ACP, 3” stacked four barrel cluster showing lightly oxidized and pitted bores. This unusual pistol has four stacked barrels that rise as each individual barrel is discharged at which point the barrel cluster is removed and reloaded, all the cases except the last barrel are presumably ejected during the firing of the subsequent barrel.

The pistol includes a black leather covered presentation case with green felt lining that remains in excellent condition. The case incudes a brass cleaning rod with wood handle and screwdriver, both have later added varnish to the wood handles. A small sticker in the box indicates it is Belgian made although the gun has German proof eagle only. There is a letter from Tri-State Arms explaining the unusual pistol. A rare oddity with only about 1000 purportedly manufactured in the early 1900s. (8A11264-170) {C&R} [Mark Dunnavant Collection] (700/900)
