This gun is in excellent condition overall after a very high end refinish & reproof in the UK, the Damascus barrels do have a few minor wear spots and one expertly removed dent (by gunsmith Matthew Begley) on the right tube 4" from the muzzle that left a wear spot in the barrel. 

Outstanding quality early hammerless Scott Premier, full coverage scroll engraved rounded bar action with crystal cocking indicator back action locks (internal parts gold washed) and the Scott patent scroll engraved forend latch that blends seamlessly into the wood. WC Scott built lots of guns but very few of these Premier hammerless guns are around. This one is set up perfectly for game or clay shooting at just under 7 1/2lbs and balancing a 1/4" in front of the hinge. 

Holland & Holland sold this gun as the Climax and I have sold a Rigby built on this same action. 

Antique so it can be shipped direct.
