Description:
William Rochester Pape was one of England's most inventive and "experimental" gun maker. He probably produced
at least as many action and safety variations than any other.
This Originally Labeled super-scarce two-tiered oak & leather small-bore cased composed pair of 20- bores is a prime example;
not only are they extremely scarce in English 20b. Damascus, but they were originally stocked full length (and remain so ) for an adult
or large adolescent. More to come on these two, but first take a look at the photos, which best portray the quality of these not-from-London Best guns.
