Description:
FACTORY ENGRAVED Belgian 16 Gauge Double Barrel SxS BOXLOCK Shotgun C&R
Turn of the Century Import from Belgium to the U.S.
Here we present a C&R Factory Engraved Belgian Double Barrel Side by Side Boxlock Shotgun, likely made circa the early to mid-1900s in Liege, Belgium for import to the United States. Several Belgian companies made and imported many shotguns to American hardware stores, mail-order houses such as Sears & Roebuck, and gun shops in the United States between 1893 and the roaring twenties.
England and Belgium were the epicenter for European gunmaking all the way through the turn of the century. This is a Belgian fowling piece that is elegant in its simplicity and practicality. This double barrel hammerless gun would have been primarily a sporting firearm designed for hunting fowl or taken out on a Saturday afternoon for a little skeet shooting! And, it was always good to have a shotgun around the house just in case ne’er do wells happened to show up with ill intentions.
The overall condition is fine. Original finish preserved. Strong action. Bright, smooth bores. This example sports a solid stock. The buttplate is chipped around the toe and side. Sharply engraved. Legible markings.
