Description:
W.C.Scott Priemier 12g hammerless sidelock made in 1881.  The Premier was their best.. Barrels are 30” dovetailed-lump SLEEVED with a concave rib and dolls head extension.  On flats are the original BP ¬London proofs.It Is not stamped “Sleeved” so sleeving might have been done in US? It’s a good job but one can see the joint- esp. in the rib.  Mirror bores. On rib is “W and C Scott and Sons Patent Tr.ilex lever grip  PREMIER QUALITY 1067 Castle Street Regent Circus London”. Barrel blue is 99%. I don’t know the chamber length but as it was sleeved  I shot 2 1/2” RST shells thru it.   
STOCk: POW round knob type with excellent figured walnut and unmarred finish, LOP is 14 1/2” to center of brown decelerator pad, 14 7/8” to Toe. DAC is 1 3/4” to Heel is 3”. Vacant gold shield on top of wrist. Classic point checkering- looks about 22/inch. Receiver is covered with engravings of ducks, geese, egrets and a standing egret  on trigger guard bottom. On left of rec. is “Patent Block Safety”.  Has Scott Crystal Cocking indicators thru which one can see if hammers are cocked. Toplever W/ Scott Spindle. Was made with intercepting sears, beaded fences and manual top tang safety. About 30% case color on action. FOREND: Splinter with press in Scott patent splinter release. WEIGHT 8#.
Includes a copy of  “ THE HISTORY OF W AND C SCOTT GUNMAKERS BY Crawford & Whatley in mint condition 
A BEAUTIFUL GUN THAT ONE CAN SHOOT AS WELL AS ADMIRE..  I ONLY SELL BECAUSE OF AGE AND A RECENT STROKE.
