Description:
Asprey 12g Self-Opening Sidelock Ejector. With a history stretching back generations, the Asprey family was a merchant of luxury goods who started didn’t start offering guns under its own name until the latter part of the 20th Century. With a team of workers, all with history of working for Holland & Holland, guns made under the Asprey name were based on an H&H type bar-action sidelock filed up in the traditional manner from forgings. Mark Sullivan was the action filer . These are traditional square body actions with single beads along the edges, automatic safety, and two triggers with a rolled edge guard bow. The action body and lock plates are color hardened and engraved in a full coverage bold deluxe Acanthus scroll pattern. On the bottom of the action, “Asprey London” is inlayed in gold.
The 28” chopper lump barrels have 1992 London proofs for 2 ¾" (70mm) chambers. Barrels on the Asprey guns were done by Mick Kelly and have smooth, concave game ribs with the Maker’s name inlayed in gold a; the rest of the address engraved. The barrels incorporate Holland’s patented ejector system and self-opening mechanism and are choked .026” in the right barrel and .032” in the left.
The gun is stocked to the fences by Stephane Dupile with a nicely figured piece of walnut with a straight hand grip, traditional drop points, 26 lpi checkering with Mullered borders, and a 15” LOP over a leather covered pad. The splinter forend has an Anson pushrod release. The stock oval has the initials: JNC.
The gun has a few small blemishes on the barrels (no dents or bulges) but overall remains in excellent overall condition.
These Asprey guns are well known among aficionados of fine guns for their high quality and what tremendous value they offer.
An exceptional gun on all levels.
