SALE - SALE European Percussion Muzzle Loading Side by Side Shotgun
Approximately 14 gauge (as determined by someone much more knowledgible than I am). 36" Damascus twist barrels. Marked "Manton, London laminated steel" on the top rib.
Belgium proof marks on the bottom of the barrel; Engraved locks with no makers name. Engraved top action tang, hammers and trigger guard. One piece walnut stock with checkered straight grip.
Condition is good with barrels having a thin dark brown rust patina overall. Some light corrosion. Front fitting where ramrod goes has been poorly repaired with pewter. Ramrod is probably a replacement but does have a brass cap. Also looks like a light rub of oil has been applied to the wood.
Double set trigger. Right hammer locks back both notches; Left hammer does not lock back.
SOLD AS NON FUNCTIONING - ANTIQUE - not FFL required
Gun #20
