I have now retired from shooting after a great shooting life spanning just over 40 years. I hope that this lovely traditional shotgun will be purchased by a ‘young shot’ who values a traditional hammerless light, quick to mount gorgeous side by side 12 bore, for this is the best package on offer for you!
Bought new from F A Anderson in East Grinstead, shortly after purchase, the factory chokes were opened out to Improved Cylinder (R) and 1/4 (L) in accordance with best published advice for general rough and driven game shooting. A visit to The West London Shooting School for gun fitting by the legendary Alan Rose., the prescription was used by a local Sussex stocker to lengthen the quite beautiful stock and Cast ON for me as a left hander. (I am 5ft 11 medium build.)
The gun comes in a canvas covered hard case with combination locks (new £150) complete with essential cleaning kit (£40) and a recently bought tan leather gun slip (new £80). From one old enthusiast to a keen newcomer, you will not be disappointed! It has been a lovely game gun lightly used on a variety of syndicated shoots across the UK. my cherished shotgun has been maintained and regularly serviced without attention to cost, latterly by Mr Eddie Jackson, Gunsmith of Ellesmere Port.
I live in Colwyn Bay so usual RFD to RFD transfer courier rules apply unless purchaser is local.
