Watson Bros. 12 Ga Boxlock 28" Barrels. Leather and wood case

Description:
12 Ga | Left: M & Right: IC | Case

This 1934 British side by side represents the golden era of London gunmaking, reflecting a tradition of bespoke craftsmanship and timeless design. Built as a quintessential 12-gauge field gun, it exemplifies the balance and elegance associated with the premier United Kingdom workshops of the early twentieth century.

This specific unit features a walnut straight English stock with a 14 ?-inch length of pull and 2 ½-inch chambers. While the firearm shows honest signs of use and age with some marks on the barrels and frosting inside the bores, it remains a nice example from a great London maker with an action that is remarkably tight and firm.

The shotgun is housed in what appears to be its original leather-covered wooden case featuring the maker's label, though the vintage case exhibits extensive wear from decades of service. Mechanically, the double-trigger action functions with precision, while the 28-inch barrels are choked Modified and Improved Cylinder for versatile performance in the field.
