Description:
Renato Gamba of Val Trompia, Italy, a best maker, their highest grade boxlock, using the proven Anson & Deeley ejector side by side design. It is engraved by the Italian Master Engraver Vasco Revera. Its 27 ½” steel ejector demi-bloc barrels are 12 gauge, 2 ¾” chambers, with 10 Briley chokes and fitted with a level file-cut rib.
Features include a Boss non-selective single trigger (gold for the Prince Extra), the tried and true Purdey double underlug locking system, automatic ejectors, and a non-automatic safety. The receiver is mated to the stock with a scalloped fancy-back. The receiver is finished with the maker’s coin finish, with incredible gorgeous deep-cut acanthus scroll and rose engraving, looking more like carving, especially on the deeply chiseled beaded fences. The top lever shows an intricately sculptured hunting hound design. A close examination shows two engraved locking screws, one on the first lower tang screw and another on the inside of the forearm iron; these are signs of a handmade gun.
The Turkish walnut stock has classic comb, an English straight-hand grip with English splinter forearm with an inletted push-button Anson release. Checkering patterns are hand-executed at 32 lpi coming together over the wrist and perfectly surrounding the long lower tang, with a two-screw tie-down, fully engraved and terminating with a fine inlaid spear point. All screws are engraved.
Disassembled, the barrels have another inscription hidden from view, reading “Model 24 Prince Extra.”
This is the crème de la crème of Italian handmade sidelock shotguns, a truly best gun with many tell-tale signs only found on best guns.
