Item Details

High Estimate1500
Low Estimate1000
serial #4281, 12 ga (2 1/2''), 30'' damascus barrels choked cylinder in both with mostly bright good bores showing some scattered areas of light pitting, a few areas moderate in the right bore. This appears to be a fine quality gun from an obscure maker built around Purdey's patent bolt system and the undersides of the barrels bearing their original London black powder proofs and later London nitro-proofs for 2 1/2'' shells at 3 tons. The barrels show a nicely reapplied plum-brown finish retaining about 98% showing just some light handling marks and showing fine swirling damascus patterns throughout. The rib is marked only ''H. MORE. LONDON.'' and the action features swirling bolsters and high spur hammers. The action and lockplates are toning to a mix of gunmetal and silvery case-hardened patina with a few hints of colors lurking about the very protected areas. Strangely, the left bolster swirl has been filed down slightly long ago. The action and lockplates show lovely detailed English foliate scrollwork throughout along with nice game bird scenes on either lockplate and a dog on the bow of the guard. The lower tang shows a bit of old pitting that is mostly unobtrusive. The checkered walnut stock and splinter forend remain in very good condition, the buttstock with some added dark finish masking a repair through the wrist, the forend with an old sliver along the right edge and some other scattered dings. The checkering has been nicely refreshed and the stock exhibits some subtle grain figure. Length-of-pull to the checkered horn buttplate is 14 1/4'' with drops of about 1 3/4'' and 2 3/4'' and stock is cast-off. The barrels lock-up well and are slightly off-face and the locks with rebounding hammers are crisp and in-time. Weight is just shy of 7 lbs. An attractive vintage British double hammergun. (13B11621-74) {C&R} (1000/1500)

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.

NOTE: Items that meet the age requirements but have been altered from their original configuration may NOT be delivered on a C&R License.
