Description:
Hammerguns - This is a super hammer gun by one of my favorite makers. What makes it so great? Balance, beauty, and function. I really appreciate the snake like top lever on this gun. I don\'t believe I have ever seen this before on a Woodward.

*Note the modern stock dimensions. The LOP could be easily be lengthened up to an inch with a pad. We can have installed English style leather covered pads for only $400.00. We also offer choke modifications if you are like me and prefer more open chokes.

James Purdey (they own James Woodward) kindly provided us this information on this gun:
