Jefferies Self-Cocking, Ejector Hammer Gun, 12 ga
Description: Jefferies self-cocking, ejector hammer gun is an underlever back-action hammer gun. The hammers are cocked via the underlever. The gun is black powder proofed. The gun has 28" steel barrels, choked cyl/cyl with 2 1/2" chambers. The stock is straight-hand and rather plain. Dimensions are LOP: 14 1/4"; DAC: 1 1/2"; DAH 2 1/2". A self-cocking, ejector hammer gun is unusual enough, but other features make this gun design unique. The design patents, which are reflected in my gun, were granted to Jefferies as numbers 7895 and 3400, dated 1885 and 1886, respectively. The gun’s action follows patent 7895 but the forend design is that of patent 3400. The gun was probably built around 1886. The hammer action is non-rebounding, i.e., there is a half-cock safety. In addition, there is an automatic tang safety, also unusual on a hammer gun. There is an artifcle on the gun in Diggory Hadoke's on-line Vintage Gun Magazine Price: $1,800.00 Buy Now Antique: Yes Shotgun Gauge: 12 Gauge Manufacturer: Jefferies Model: Self-cocking Ejector Hammer Gun Serial Number: 2246 Barrel Length: 28 Bore Info: .729 Chambers: 2 1/2 Ejectors: Ejectors Condition: Good Metal Condition: Good Wood Condition: Very Good Bore Condition: Excellent Barrels: Blued Barrel Type: Steel Action: Self-cocking hammer Triggers: Double Stock: Straight-hand Stock Comb: 1 1/2 Stock Heel: 2 1/2 Stock Cast: Neutral Fore End: No Latch Butt Pad: None LOP: 14 1/4 Rib: Game Finish: Oil/Blue Weight: 6 1/2 lbs Sights: Bead Manufacture Date: c 1886 Chokes: Fixed Choke Left: Cyl Choke Right: Cyl Engraving: Game scene Extras: Seff-cocking, automatic safety, half-cock safety Item Location: Virginia Proof:Nitro: No Proof:Black: Yes Contact Seller |
