Description:
Antique W.W. GREENER Double Barrel Side x Side HAMMERLESS Damascus Shotgun
Nice 12 Gauge Boxlock Shotgun
Here we present a W. W. Greener Double Barrel Side by Side Hammerless Shotgun in 12 Gauge, manufactured circa 1887 in Birmingham, England. William W. Greener was a member of the second generation family which had been involved with gunmaking from 1829 to the present day.
Greener served his apprenticeship with John Gardner in Newcastle prior to working for Joe Manton, who was probably the best gunmaker in England in the early 1800s. In 1829 he set up his own shop in Newcastle making percussion muzzle loading sporting and military shotguns and rifles, as well as harpoon guns for the Dundee Whalers. However, he found it difficult to obtain the best materials, so he moved to Birmingham in 1844 where Greener Gunmaking has remained ever since.
The overall condition is very good+. The Damascene pattern on the barrels is nicely preserved. Some case colors on the frame are still visible. The numbers match. The actions are excellent. The safety is smooth and positive. The bores are shiny bright and smooth. The stock is in great shape and has an addition of the leather pad that marks the place where the comb mounts to the face. Birmingham proofs.
