Description:
HANNOVERIAN Jaeger-Style Antique SxS Shotgun
Ornate Wood Patch Box, Horn & Shapely Hardware
Here we present an antique Jaeger-style Percussion Shotgun from the Kingdom of Hannover circa the 1850s. This shotgun features a maker’s mark lock that is just a little too faint to read (“ENGEL__”), however, the words “A HANNOVER” are clear and curiously in reverse on the opposite lock. This muzzle-loading shotgun would have been made with purpose of hunting fowl in mind.
The stock is very much in the Germanic hunter style with a broad width throughout, a stout butt, boxy butt stock, a deep wooden patch box, and a generous cheekpiece. The fore end cap and ramrod are tipped with horn. The stock is carved throughout and fitted with shapely brass hardware to include the large and flowing trigger guard with attractive finials. This shotgun is also equipped with sling swivels for ease of carry in the field.
The overall condition is good. The metal surfaces are dark with age. Traces of silver remain on some of the brass hardware. The stock shows honest period use and remains solid. The bores are smooth and clean. The actions are functional. Both are strong and crisp and hold firmly at full cock, the left hammer will not catch the half cock notch. A very attractive percussion shotgun with a distinct German styling!
