J. Jeffery as Holland & Holland acquired Jeffery in 1959, 27" Ejector Chopper Lump barrels at .729 .011 & .028" (Imp. Cyl. & Imp. Mod.), 2 3/4" chambers, KG 1,230 weight barrels, Concave matted top rib, Double triggers with the front articulated, Rolled trigger guard edge for the right hand, Splinter forend with a frontal Anson release, Straight hand stock at 14 5/16 x 1 7/16 x 2 3/16" over a full face checkered butt, Neutral stock, 6 lbs. 7 oz., 98% coverage of very nice H&H Royal type scroll engraving by in house engraver Piotti on a soft coin finished frame, It has an Excellent piece of European Walnut with excellent black/brown contrast with fiddleback, The gun is with original barrel blue at 99%, The stock and forend at 97% with very light handling marks, The checkering at 100%, The barrels inside and out remain as new. This Piotti quality piece has 2 retaining screws on key screws on both the trigger guard and inside the forend. By 1985 Piotti had reached a pinnacle of success and all their work was totally done in house. This action body was machined from a solid billet of steel as were the locks and forend. The barrels and stocking were all done under one roof. Here is another Classic game gun, with the proper size action body with the nice game gun weight of 6 Lbs. 7 Oz., for 12 Bore gunning by one of the leading gunmaking firms in the world. W. J. Jeffery in 1956 was sold to Malcolm Lyell who also owned the London Westley Richards agency and the business moved to 23 Conduit Street. In 1959 Lyell became managing director and chief executive of Holland & Holland, the address changed to 13 Bruton Street and Jeffery became a subsidiary of Holland & Holland. Under Holland & Holland, W.J. Jeffery & Co rifles and shotguns continued to be made along with H&H importing Piotti's for their London trade. This Piotti is one of several that I have encountered with the Jeffery name and the H&H address at 33 Bruton Street. In 2000 W.J. Jeffery & Co was sold to American interests and from 2000 to 2010 control of the company was transferred to J. Roberts & Son of London. SOLD Shotgun Gauge: 12 Gauge |
