Description:
I like this rifle. It obviously has seen a good amount of service but the bore is bright with sharp rifling showing little wear indicating the previous owners priorities were in the right place when it came to cleaning their guns.
While being very attractive and functional I have found out this rifle is really quite rare as according to Walter Winfer\'s research Holland only built 24 of their single shot rifles on the Field\'s patent, all completed during the 1890\'s. See British Single Shot Rifles, Volume 5, Rochester, 2004, pp.11-14. Our rifle was built right during this period between 1895 and 1896. This is one of those rifles one wishes they could wave a magic wand over and ask it to talk and tell all of its stories. I am sure more than one of its stories would have us riveted to our chairs..... *** Note: To see this gun with high resolution photos and a zoom-in feature, go to the vintagedoubles main site and search for the gun ID: 3269 or browse the main site to see our full gun collection.
