Here we have a solid field gun from a great English maker, Webley and Scott, Ltd. This firm began its stint in 1906 and are still building fine British doubleguns at this date. Webley & Scott made more double shotguns than any other British firm and made guns that ran the gamut from simple field guns to beautifully engraved “BEST GUNS”. All the guns they produced are considered quality guns and have been well respected for over 100 years. This Model 700 Webley and Scott, sn138937 made in 1968, is a delightful example of what the English gun trade is noted for…building solid, lightweight, well-balanced guns that function for decades with excellent, well-proven mechanics. THIS WEBLEY AND SCOTT IS SPECIAL AS IT RETAINS 99%, AS NEW FACTORY FINISHES ON ALL METAL AND WOOD AND HAS A VERY RARE BEAVERTAIL FOREND, WEIGHS ONLY 6LBS. 2OZ., AND BALANCES PERFECTLY JUST FORWARD OF THE HINGE PIN. BEST OF ALL THE FACTORY CHAMBERS ARE 2 ¾” AND THE GUN IS PROOFED FOR HEAVY FIELD LOADS…GREAT PHEASANT GUN! She is an elegant upland gun as well, with hand cut English scroll engraving, bold case color, rounded English walnut stock with English grip, and a checkered butt. If you ever wanted a noted English double gun in the lightweight 16ga., the perfect upland gun, this is your chance. There are not many British doubles made in 16ga., and even fewer with a diminutive beavertail forend. See the specifications below. Thanks for looking!
