Description:
Antique British SHARWOOD & FLETCHER 12 Gauge Double Barrel HAMMER Shotgun
ENGRAVED TOPLEVER English BACKACTION Fowling Piece!
Here we present an antique Sharwood & Fletcher Side by Side Double Barrel Hammer 12 Gauge Shotgun, made circa 1890 in London, England. London and Birmingham were the epicenters for English gunmaking all the way through and continuing after the turn of the century. This is an English fowling piece that is elegant in its simplicity and practicality. This double barrel hammer gun would have been used primarily for putting game or possibly defending one’s home.
This double gun has earlier Birmingham black powder proofs as well as later nitro proofs. Marked for 2 ½ inch shells. For chokes, the right barrel is marked as constricted .729” and the left .719”. The entire gun weighs only about 6.4 lbs.
The overall condition is near fine. The barrels have been reblued at some point. The actions are both excellent. The bores are both smooth and shiny bright. The stock remains solid and smooth, with some signs of use. There is a small split at the upper screw of the butt plate.
Own the original! This is a legitimate antique and not a reproduction.
Barrels are 30 inches.
