This Russell Hillsdon 20 Gauge side-by-side is a lightweight English classic—built by a respected Birmingham gunsmith known for well-regulated, fast-handling game guns. At just 5 lbs 10 oz with a straight-grip stock and 26" barrels, it swings beautifully for walked-up grouse, woodcock, quail, or light driven birds—nimble, low-recoil, and perfectly balanced.
26" barrels with Full and Modified chokes deliver tight, effective patterning for field loads. Double triggers and auto ejectors function crisply with tang safety. Checkered walnut straight grip stock fits instinctively—14 1/2" LOP, 1 5/8" DAC, 2 1/4" DAH, 6mm cast-off—with a blank oval initial plate in the toe line.
Honest field-used condition: thinning original finishes reflect real use, but action remains tight and on face, bores brilliant, case color traces strong, and mechanics crisp. A shooter-grade English boxlock with great patina and character.

A rare opportunity to own a proper Russell Hillsdon 20 bore in solid, usable condition—ready for the field or as a charming addition to any collection. Click “Buy It Now” or contact me today!
