Charles Rosson 12 Gauge Side-by-Side
28” Barrels
Cased
Description:
Offered here is a beautifully balanced and properly built Charles Rosson 12 gauge side-by-side, made in England and originally part of the Cyril Adams gun program-a name that carries real authority among those who understand gun fit, shooting instruction, and the philosophy behind a fine shotgun.
This is a classic English game gun-built with purpose, not excess. Clean lines, correct dimensions, and a gun that simply does what it’s supposed to do.
Chambered in 2 3/4”, the gun features 28” barrels and weighs 6 lbs. 12 oz., placing it right where a proper upland gun should be-light in the hands, quick to the shoulder, and steady through the swing.
The stock is a traditional English straight-hand grip, crafted from nicely figured walnut and set up with thoughtful, shootable dimensions:
- Length of Pull: 15 1/4” over front trigger
- Drop at Heel: 2 3/8”
- Drop at Comb: 1 3/4”
- Cast: 3/16” off at face
These are purposeful dimensions-this is a gun that was built to shoot where you’re looking, not something pulled off a rack.
Fitted with double triggers, the gun maintains the simplicity and reliability expected of a proper English side-by-side. It carries easily and mounts naturally, exactly as it should.
Charles Rosson was a respected London gunmaker known for producing well-built, honest English sporting guns without the inflated name premium of the “Big Four.” Guns from Rosson were often made for shooters-people who wanted proper English handling characteristics, quality materials, and dependable performance in the field. Today, they represent one of the best values in true English gunmaking-offering the feel and function of a London gun at a fraction of the cost.
The gun is housed in a canvas and leather leg-o-mutton case, perfectly suited to its intended use in the field.
The connection to Cyril Adams is what sets this gun apart. For those who knew him-or understand his influence-this represents more than just a shotgun. It’s a piece of a philosophy centered around fit, instinct, and the art of shooting.
