A lovely 8 Gauge Greener, It has a recorded history from W.W Greener which is in with the images.
The condition is remarkable for a gun made in 1898, and over the years has had some adventures too.
Most notable is the sweet and sour incident whilst on the marsh one very cold January morning in 1970. In pursuit of two Geese which had cut out from a Skein flying overhead, the gun was fired bringing both Geese down and in the heat of the moment the unfortunate shooter had fallen over, landing on the gun and causing some damage to the stock head, which luckily is such a massive piece of timber, it was repaired with no ill effect to future shooting, fortunately for the owner.

The pictures show the scars left by the successful outing, but are fairly difficult to spot. The price does reflect the unfortunate historical incident. Calibre: 08 gauge. Mechanism: Side by Side. Origin: unknown. Orientation: Right Handed. Barrel Length: 33in. Stock Length: 14in 1/4.
