Provenance: this gun was purchased out of Scotland in the late 1990's from Graham MacKinley after having gone though it and ensuring it was sound. A nice condition gun showing now a little thinning of the barrel black in spots and a very small old crack at the top tang that Graham had commented when purchased that had not changed in 10 years prior, would be an easy fix to change out the wood extension for a leather pad. Dickson round actions with good original barrels have been hard to find in the last few years. Comes in a period leather trunk case with period accessories but with a Greener trade label.
