NICE Antique BELGIAN 36 Bore DOUBLE BARREL Percussion Shotgun CARVED STOCK
ENGRAVED Belgian HOMESTEAD Hunting/Fowling Piece
Here we present an antique Belgian Double Barrel Side by Side Percussion Shotgun, manufactured circa the 1850s likely in Liege, Belgium. During this era, there were many English and Belgian gunmakers who were capitalizing on the eager markets in the United States.
This 36 bore shotgun was a sought after gauge, due to the ability to use it for medium or large size game, along with waterfowl. It’s relatively short 30-5/8 inch barrel made for easy hunting in the dense woods or traipsing through the marsh looking for ducks and geese. This would have been a staple of most homesteads hanging over the mantle during the tumultuous times of the mid-1800s. It would have been used for putting food on the table or warding off unwanted aggression.
The overall condition is fine. The action functions but the right hammer does not hold in the cock position. The bore has dimmed and remains in good shape. This example sports a wonderfully carved stock with less than average handling wear. Engraved lock. Markings are legible. Damascus barrels. The underside of the barrels are liege proofed.
Own the original! This is a legitimate antique and not a reproduction.
Barrel: 30-5/8 inches.
Caliber: 36 Bore
