Webley & Scott Model 728 28 bore

Description:
An excellent little Webley & Scott Model 728, a 28 bore double box lock ejector, in the highly desirable Hemingway configuration with 25" barrels choked 3/4 (improved modified) in the left tube and 1/4 (improved cylinder) in the right tube. The gun is ready to go in it's original case complete with trade label and all the original accessories including a pair of snap caps, an oil bottle, a two piece cleaning rod stored under the barrels, a wire brush, a patch swab, a mop, and a box of cleaning patches. Also included is the original hang tag. This particular 728 appears to me to be a little better than usual with highly figured wood and a gold escutcheon on the toe. The Model 728 is a fantastic little English hand made side-by-side gun, made before the days of mass produced CNC machined guns. This gun is gently used - it bagged several quail and a pheasant in its one and only outing this season - but is in excellent condition. The pictures tell the story. I think these guns are a great value and an excellent investment - not bespoke but exhibiting fine English craftsmanship. It's a gun you can be proud of but at a fraction of the cost of a bespoke gun.
