Condition
Both guns present in excellent overall condition. The stocks are solid and finely figured, checkering remains sharp, and the actions are tight with positive lockup. The barrels and ribs show strong, even finish; bores are bright with no noted defects. The engraving is crisp, and the color case hardening remains vivid. Triggers are crisp, ejectors function properly, and overall mechanics are excellent. The original fitted leather motor case accompanies the pair, showing period-correct wear consistent with age and careful storage.
Why this pair
Matched pairs of English boxlocks with consecutive serials and original fitted cases are rare and highly desirable. The gold numbering “1” and “2,” fine scroll engraving, and color case-hardened actions elevate this pair well above ordinary field guns. At just 6 lbs 4 oz each, they balance and handle beautifully, making them equally suitable for the field or as part of a focused collection.
