Side by Side 12 Gauge with EJECTORS

Here we present a C&R engraved Auguste Francotte Side by Side Hammerless Shotgun in 12 Gauge, made circa the turn of the century in Liege, Belgium. It was at the beginning of the 19th century in 1805 when the Auguste Francotte gun factory was founded. Its founding pre-dates that of both James Purdey and Holland & Holland of London.

Today, Auguste Francotte was and is one of the most respected names in good quality guns, known all over the world. The origins of the Francotte guns are closely linked with the Armory of Liege, which had a very high reputation.

Over the years, Francotte guns have been owned by many of the world's industrial leaders, chiefs of state, and the crowned heads of Europe and Asia.
