ENGRAVED British WEBLEY & SCOTT Double Barrel C&R Shotgun HALIFAX RETAILER
ROARING TWENTIES Era BOXLOCK Fowling Piece
Here we present a C&R British C.H. Smith Boxlock Double Barrel Side by Side Hammerless Shotgun, made circa the early to mid-1900s in Birmingham, England. In 1897 P Webley & Son amalgamated with W & C Scott & Sons, forming The Webley & Scott Revolver & Arms Company of Birmingham and 78 Shaftesbury Avenue, London. Up until the mid-1920’s guns were produced as either Webley & Scott or W & C Scott models. Production of Webley & Scott Shotguns continued up until 1978 at which time a separate company, W&C Scott (Gunmakers) Limited was formed and in 1985 was bought by Holland and Holland.
England and Belgium were the epicenter for European gunmaking well beyond the turn of the century. This is an English fowling piece that is elegant in its simplicity and practicality. This double barrel hammerless gun would have been used for putting game on the table, spending an afternoon skeet shooting, or defending one’s property.
This example is has an “A.J. JEWSON. HALIFAX” retailer mark on the rib. A.J. Jewson was first established in 1900 Halifax, United Kingdom, and is still operating a one of Halifax’s oldest shops.
