Deactivated British Frederick Hadfield 12-bore boxlock shotgun **SOLD**
This is a 12-bore double-barrelled boxlock action shotgun of side-by-side construction made by Frederick Hadfield of 32, Whitall Street, Birmingham, as faintly marked between the two full 30 inch barrels. This example is in lovely condition, with classic lightly cross-hatched hardwood rear and forestock, with just the very minor knocks as would be expected on a Victorian-era shotgun. Delicately abundantly engraved metalwork, still retaining a lovely patina on the majority of the steel, including the barrels, with makers name on either side. This shotgun breaks, cocks and dry-fires crisply on both barrels, and can be fully stripped. It would make a fabulous addition to anybody's hunting lodge, mounted over the fireplace! Two inert cartridges are included, with more available seperately in the 'Inert Ammunition' section at £1.50 each, post free if ordered with the shotgun. Deactivated in the UK with Certificate to UK specification.
Our Price: £175.00
