I wish you were closer I’d jump at that!

Very good value! I've just paid £380 including commission for an AYA No4 20 bore at auction. The gun here looks like a real steal at the price asked. So have a bump on me for Spring!

It's a bugger when you can't even give a nice sxs 20 away... I'm amazed

Worzel, You say the gun is proofed to 1370 bar?? The proof pressure for superior steel is 1320 bar! Are you sure there's no fleur de lys mark on the proof marks? Can you add a photo? Even at the price you're asking, it's a straightforward job for a competent gunsmith to open out your 3/4 to a 1/4 choke and off you go! That gun looks nice and tidy, and at the very least, if you just got the tight choke relieved, you can just shoot normal steel through it!!

It's simple enough to do the transaction by post through an RFD. Yes, there is a cost involved.
Registered post for the SGC to the seller and the return postage.
RDF cost to send and receive - the last one I did cost me £70.

Does the selling price include any of these costs?
It's not hard to do, but you need to be patient.
Both of the issuing police authorities need to be informed of the transaction.
This can be done online.
The gun looks very nice, and if you really want it, give it a go. Hopefully, the seller can send you a video showing the gun in detail and the ejectors working.
Good luck with the sale

I'm not sure what you're asking but regarding RFD fees I'm sure we can work something out if someone is interested.
