Description:
   ***   SOLD   ***   Recently refurbished by Heritage Guns UK this superb and rare sidelever Boss gun was made 1889 - 1890 by John Robertson’s shop in the very last years before Robertson took over Boss & Co. It incorporates many of the changes that Robertson later introduced once he assumed ownership of Boss on January 1, 1891.  With its Stanton made bar action locks, elegant sidelever, and superb Sumner engraving this gun serial number 4053 is #1 of a pair and represents the early departure from the firm’s preference for back actions and rotary underlevers. Engraved by Sumner in Very Best Scroll pattern.  ***   This Boss was rebarreled in 1927 by the maker and was reproved for 2-3/4” cartridges in London in 2013. The barrels are 30” in length with a smooth, concave game type rib. The gun was restocked at some point with highly figured walnut and has been refinished with a traditional hand rubbed linseed oil preparation as used on best guns by one of the top English makers.    ***   The Right barrel is bored 0.734 and has 0.008 constriction for a Light Improved Cylinder choke. The Left barrel is bored 0.732 with a constriction of 0.012 for an Improved Modified choke. Minimum wall thickness for both right and left barrels is 0.024. Stock dimensions are 14-1/2” X 1-5/16” X 2-1/16”. Gun weighs 6lb 14oz. Balances and handles just as you would expect from a Boss. Perfect for clays or upland game. Bar action sidelever Boss guns are extremely rare. Where else are you going to find a Boss SLE with maker's barrels for this price? Don’t l et this one get away.. I give a 3-day non-firing inspection and will only accept returns if gun is not as described. I am the US Agent for Heritage Guns UK.
