Description:
Hammerguns - This is a fairly rare and interesting 16g. hammer gun. The gun we have priced very fairly as there is some minor pitting and dings in the barrels that could probably be removed or used as is.
William Rochester Pape was known as one of England\'s finest gun makers and were often referred to, being from Manchester, "the Purdey of the north." While many claim during his times that they invented choke boring it is generally agreed upon that William was the first to invent, produce, and demonstrate it. *** 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: 4173 or browse the main site to see our full gun collection.
