Alexander Henry of Scotland Beautiful Lightweight 12 Gauge Boxlock Ejector

Description:
Here is a very handsome 12 gauge boxlock ejector by Alexander Henry, built circa 1890.  The 28" barrels are invisibly sleeved with 2 1/2" chambers.  There are areas of pitting in both bores.  The chokes are .019/.037 (about modified/full).  The gun locks up tight, and the ejectors are in time.  The stepped action features carved fences and excellent scroll engraving.  There are intercepting sears.  The top-lever is engraved with the numeral "2".  The fore-end has an engraved lever release.  There is a repaired crack at the bottom of the fore-end where wood meets metal.  The beautifully figured stock measures 1 5/8" x 2" x 13 3/4" with engraved heel-and-toe plates.  The bottom of the butt-stock has an initial plate with a previous owner's initials.  There is cast off (for a right hand shot.)  The weight is 6 lbs 6 oz.  This is a high quality Scottish game gun from a great maker, (and it's very fun to carry in the grouse woods).
