Item Description: Translate description
serial #43221, 12 ga (2 3/4''), 28'' barrels choked about improved cylinder in both with bright very fine to near excellent bores showing a few tiny dings and probably some old choke work. The barrels of this double show two sets of London proof marks, one for 1 1/8 oz maximum, and a tiny discreet EPI import mark. The barrels retain about 90-92% good quality re-blacking with scattered light handling marks and toning to mild gray patina. The barrel rib markings are a bit softened but legible and there appears to have been an engraving error as it reads ''ARMY & NAVY C.S.A. LONDON'' while both lockplates properly read ''C.S.L.'' The action and lockplates have mostly toned to an attractive silvery case-hardened patina retaining a few subtle hints of color in the protected areas and with lovely fine English scrollwork throughout and the fences with elegant sculpted acanthus leaves. The top lever and triggerguard show fading rust blue and the upper tang has ''SAFE'' in silver. The checkered walnut stock and splinter forend remain in very good plus condition with somewhat worn finish and scattered light handling marks, the forend with a bit more wear showing a small neat repair along the left edge and a minor crack at the rear. Stock features drop points and attractive grain figure throughout, the checkering somewhat softened and the toeline with silver monogram plate. Length-of-pull to the vintage solid red rubber pad is 14 1/2'' with drops of 2'' and 2 1/2'' and noticeable cast-off. The gun features double triggers, automatic safety, bushed firing pins and German silver bead front sight. Lock-up is by dual underbites with hidden third fastener though is a bit off-face exhibiting some minor side-to-side play. Weight is 6 lbs. 7 oz. and the action seems to function well mechanically with in-time ejectors. A very good British double made for the prolific Army & Navy CSL. (13B12007-1) {C&R} (1000/1500)
