Description:
General Specs: AyA, 1979, 20 Gauge, 5lbs. 10oz., Chokes M/F, LOP 14 3/4", DAH 2 3/8", DAC 1 7/16"

Here we have a delightful, affordable upland gun from AyA, one of Spain’s premier gunmakers well known the world over for making solid, well finished guns.  From the AyA : The N° 3 has been AYA’s standard boxlock design since 1960. It is modelled on a Westley Richards boxlock action, brought to Spain by the King brothers. The Anson & Deeley action, the most famous of all boxlock designs, was created by two employees of Westley Richards in 1875, and ever since, Westley Richards guns have defined boxlock elegance.  This AyA, sn527296 built in 1979, is a fine upland gun indeed!  Weighing a scant 5lbs. 10oz.  and balanced just ahead of the hinge pin, you can carry this gun all day with little fatigue.  The 20ga. chambering is known to be deadly on pheasants, grouse, quail, dove, woodcock and all upland game. The 27″ barrels are tight on the hinge and breech face, have excellent bores, tight ribs,99% blue, and are choked an ideal M/F with 2 ¾” chambers.  The receiver retains 99% vivid bone and charcoal case color and is in perfect mechanical condition with crisp double triggers, auto safety, and excellent screws. The furniture retains 95% factory finish with light field marks. As this is a VFI CERTIFIED GUN; we stripped the action and forend iron to the small parts, Ultrasonic cleaned all, scrubbed to clean metal, inspected all for function and integrity, lubricated and reassembled, now with a 90-day mechanical warranty.  This is a $450 service in our shop. These are known to be highly reliable guns, and this one is light as a feather and nicely balanced.  The AyA is known as a supremely reliable gun, and priced affordably for a hand-engraved, hand-checkered gun.  A perfect gun for the upcoming upland and clays season. Please review the detailed photographs and specifications. Thanks for looking
