Item Details
Low Estimate2000
High Estimate3000
serial #15335, 12 bore, 2" Paradox, 28" barrels with mostly bright about very good bores showing scattered light pitting, a small dent in the right tube about 9 3/4" from the muzzle and strong Paradox rifling. The barrels of this 1895-made gun have mostly toned to a mild gray patina showing remnants of smoothed-over light pitting scattered about, handling marks and generous brown finish nearer the muzzles and along the protected areas of the rib. The barrel markings with 98 New Bond Street address, "PARADOX" and "FOSBERY PATENT" have softened somewhat from the years but remain entirely legible. The barrels are stamped with London black powder proofs. The frame and back action lockplates have toned to a similar pewter gunmetal patina showing some moderate smoothed-over old pitting along the triggerguard, bottom of frame and forend latch with a hint of case-hardened colors lurking about the protected areas around the top lever. The metal surfaces are very lightly embellished featuring simple bordering, both lockplates are clearly marked "HOLLAND & HOLLAND" and the arm is equipped with an extended upper tang. The checkered straight grip walnut buttstock and forend remain in about good condition as cleaned and lightly refinished long ago showing a repaired break at the wrist, mostly worn checkering and scattered light dings. There is a filled sling swivel hole along the toe line and the sling swivel has been moved forward slightly, the buttstock is slightly cast-off and is fitted with a grooved horn buttplate that shows moderate wear. The locks with rebounding hammer function crisply and lock-up is solid on-face with top lever still right of center. The arm is sighted with a beaded blade front sight and two-leaf flip-up rear sights with platinum lines regulated for 50 and 100 yards. Length-of-pull is 13 9/16" with drops of about 1 9/16" and 2 1/2" and weight is about 7 pounds 5 ounces. A very respectable example of these desirable Paradox guns.

GUIDELINES FOR FIREARM PURCHASES
• All Federal, State and Local firearms laws will be observed. FFL holders may take possession of any firearm on day of sale when they present a signed copy of their Federal Firearms License. New Hampshire residents over the age of 21 may take possession of any firearm on day of sale providing the proper paperwork is filled out and the transfer has been approved either through the NH State Police or the FBI NICS System. While most NICS and State approvals are immediate, approvals could take up to 3 days. Most non-residents may take possession of long guns on day of sale after completing the proper forms and successfully completing a NICS check; modern handguns will need to be shipped to an FFL holder in the buyer's home state. Buyer is responsible for any and all shipping charges and all items must be paid for on day of sale.
