Description:
E.J Churchill   XXV (25”)   Hercules model.  S/N#7437 manufacture date (circa 1958-1960) Self Opener, and auto ejector.  Full coverage English Scroll & Foliate engraving. With barrel breach wedge scroll engraving very tastefully done.  Chokes:   Right: CYL.  Left: I CYL.  Stock: DAC 1 3/16” X DAH 1 7/8” X LOP of 15 ¼” to a checkered butt.  It is utterly amazing that this 100% original example survived without being altered, or the stock being cut. Weight 6Lbs even. The gun is in original British proof of 2 ¾” and 1 1/4oz. This can be seen in the following photos.    This is a London best gun in every sense of the word. It is the historic invention of Robert Churchill with his patented tapered game rib. This gave the illusion of a much longer barrels. This was also accomplished by the straight grip stock and the longer length of pull.  This gives the gun the handling characteristics of a 28, or 30” barreled gun without the cumbersome weight and length in the bird covers. This would make a fantastic upland companion. Buyer assumes shipping and insurance fees.  Standard 3 day inspection period.
