Uncover Victorian-era innovation with this E. Paton Pinfire Sgl Barrel Shotgun in 14 Gauge, crafted by E. Paton in Birmingham, England, a skilled maker of period firearms during the mid-19th century. Pinfire shotguns, patented in the 1840s, were a transitional design before percussion, prized for their simplicity and the cartridge's self-contained primer. This No4473 antique, with 30" Damascus barrel, is a collector's delight for enthusiasts of pre-cartridge arms.

This example is in Very Good overall condition, with Damascus barrel showing good pattern, suitable for display or careful use. The fixed choke are suited for close-range targets (10–25 yards), ideal for driven game like partridge. The rotary under-lever action, a hallmark of period designs, adds historical intrigue. The checkered walnut straight-grip stock, with blank oval in toe line, exhibits light handling marks but remains structurally sound. The pinfire mechanism operates mechanically very well, with a tight lockup reflecting Paton's craftsmanship.
