For those looking for a vintage English shotgun to use for sporting clays or high birds, the Empire is considered an excellent addition to any cabinet. It is valued more for its "tank-like" reliability than for fine artistic engraving. Modern buyers should always have the chambers and bore measurements checked by a gunsmith to ensure they are still "in proof". A W.W. Greener Empire shotgun review highlights its robust, well-made English craftsmanship, excellent handling, and vintage appeal, often praised for pointing well and absorbing recoil, though they can be heavy for all-day fieldwork and modifications (like chamber lengthening) require expert assessment due to their hand-built nature, making them highly valued for their build quality and distinctive charm, notes Sporting Shooter and Gun Digest.  Key Strengths: Quality Construction: Extremely well-made with hand-fitted parts, typical of vintage English guns. Handling & Pointing: Known for shouldering and pointing well, with a lively feel, even noted as livelier than some Brownings, says Canadian Gun Nutz forum. Recoil Absorption: Heavier weight helps manage recoil from heavier loads, notes Sporting Shooter. Aesthetics: Possess a distinct vintage English charm, making them visually appealing. Accuracy: Very accurate, notes Sporting Shooter.  This is a used item.
