This is a fine AYA Coral Over/Under Shotgun in 12 gauge, crafted by Aguirre y Aranzábal (AYA) in Eibar, Spain. The serial number 126986 aligns with production in the 1970s, as AYA’s Coral model was produced during this period, often as a copy of the Merkel 201 design with a Kersten crossbolt action. Founded in 1915, AYA is renowned for its high-quality shotguns, blending traditional Basque craftsmanship with modern engineering. The Coral, a premium over/under model, features a scalloped receiver with relief engravings, typically of game scenes, and is known for its balance and reliability. The 2 3/4" chambers and Improved Cylinder chokes make it ideal for upland game and sporting clays. Its historical significance lies in AYA’s reputation for producing durable, elegant shotguns, often exported to the U.S. and U.K. markets, competing with higher-end European makers.

This example is in good to very good condition, with bright bores indicating careful maintenance and minimal use. The 27 1/2" vent rib barrels and receiver show minor wear, consistent with light field use. The walnut stock, with a 14 1/4" LOP, has an ill-fitting recoil pad, which may require adjustment for optimal fit. The double triggers and automatic ejectors function flawlessly, ensuring reliability.

Note: The ill-fitting recoil pad may need replacement for field use; consult a gunsmith for proper fitting.
