Arrieta Model 931 16 Ga. - STUNNING TRUE PAIR, BEST, vintage firearms inc
Description: General Specs: Arrieta, Year 2006, 16 Gauge, 6lbs. 6oz., Chokes IC/M, LOP 13 13/16", DAH 2", DAC 1 3/8" Serial Numbers: 57-03-53-06; 57-03-54-06 Here we have Arrieta’s very best, highest grade Model 931 built as a true matched pair in 2006. These are true sidelocks with all the BEST GUN FEATURES YOU WOULD EXPECT TO FIND ON A $50,000 GUN IN TODAY’S WORLD, INCLUDING BEST BOLLETA STEEL CHOPPER LUMP BARRELS HIGHLY POLISHED BLUE WITH CONCAVE GAME RIBS, THE FINEST HAND-CHISELED SPECIAL ROSE AND SCROLL ENGRAVING ON A SCULPTED FRAME WITH BEADED FENCES, HAND-DETACHABLE SIDE PLATES, ARTICULATED FRONT TRIGGER, ROLLED EDGE TRIGGER GUARDS, COCKING INDICATORS, GAS VENTS, REMOVABLE STRIKER DISCS, STOCKED TO THE FENCES WITH FINE EXHIBITION TURKISH WALNUT INCLUDING DROP POINTS, 28 LPI CHECKERING, TERMINATING IN A CHECKERED BUTT, HAND DETACHABLE SIDELOCKS, TRUE SELF-OPENING ACTIONS, CASED IN THE FINEST MAKER’S LEATHER CASE. The workmanship is uncompromised, with perfect wood-to-metal fit, the hand-filed components of the action melt together without flaw, and of course, mechanical perfection with crisp triggers, intercepting safety sears, high-polished and jeweled internal components, and auto safeties. These guns are nearly new, with 99.5% of the factory finishes remaining and showing no signs of being shot more than a few times. The barrels are tight as new on the hinge pin and breech face, the ejectors strong and timed, triggers crisp, and the engraving still sharp as new. The engraving is signed by V. Alberdi, a well-known master engraver. Spanish guns are rarely signed. Arrieta is among the finest Spanish made shotguns produced in the true Basque traditions. Michael McIntosh praises Arrieta in his book "Best Guns" and in fact carried his Arrieta afield as much as any other gun he owned. The Basque makers were famous for making quality "copies" of other guns like the Holland and Holland Royal Deluxe that these Arrietas mimic. Besides the engraving, the Model 931 is a true clone with H & H pattern 7-pin sidelocks, H&H hand detachable locks, H & H selective Southgate ejectors… and down to every H&H detail with their H & H Self-Opening mechanism. Study the photos and you will see a stunning true pair, with every detail matched gun to gun, including weight, balance, stock dimensions, and chokes. The specifications are listed in the tables below, shown as a single gun, as they are truly identical in all ways…no need to duplicate specs. Our gunsmiths can lengthen the LOP gracefully with the addition of Purdey style leather covered pads. We can bend the stocks to suit your needs in our shop. We could even “AMERICANIZE” the pair by making one set of barrels have different chokes so they can be used for different upland game requirements, ie skeet and light mod for grouse, and IC/M for pheasants. Any work can be performed within 5 days of purchase…no waiting in line. Arrieta is back in production and to duplicate this true pair today would cost over $80,000 by the time they were delivered over a year from now. These guns are a true bargain, a notable investment opportunity that you can enjoy as the value increases. In fact, at the price offered, you will have instant equity in a truly stunning pair of guns. Thanks for looking, and buy these guns now for your upcoming bird hunt!
