Description:
Hammerguns - This is a very high quality English double with sound and nitro proofed Damascus barrels. While the Purdey patent thumb lever may put one off as they look rather unusual, it would be a gross mistake to do so as they are extremely ergonomic. I have been using a gun with this feature in the field for years and absolutely love this design.

This fine shotgun is tight on face with basically bright bores and it is field ready. It has not seen any recent restoration so if one wanted, a new oil finish would bring out what is marvelous smoky English walnut.

*Note this guns extremely modern dimensions and that it has a checkered butt with engraved heel and toe clips! *** 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: 3005 or browse the main site to see our full gun collection.
