ARTHUR HILL & SON 12G SIDE BY SIDE SHOTGUN.

Box Lock Ejector 12g Side by Side Arthur Hill and Son Shotgun. 26 ½” (664mm) barrels choked IC and ½. Standard Traditional 2 ½” (65mm) English Game chambers. The gun weighs in at a lightweight 6 Lbs 5 oz (2.863 Kg) and finishes an overall length of 42 3/8” (1075mm). Length of Pull to the stock at 14 3/8” (365mm) with very little cast.

This IS actually a VERY nice gun in generally VERY nice to excellent condition throughout. Blueing is still great. The stock is Very Well Figured with some nice grain pattern and a Straight  hand grip. As detailed there is minimal cast so this may well suite a LEFT or RIGHT handed shot. Chequering is still good too.

The action is the main highlight for me on this gun. Profuse and Heavy Scroll work all around with a large Single Oak Leaf detail to each bolster or shoulder. All done by hand way back when. The top lever is still not centred on the action tang either. This COULD be due to a replacement spring but the general overall condition suggest not. More likely just minimal use so far. Barrels have a tapering concave rib with a singe front sight bead.

A GOOD all round example of an equally GOOD English Side by Side Boxlock Ejector. Oh yes…. Still PLENTY of life in it too. The bores are as original proof stamps at .729 with minimal walls anywhere still at 36,000 plus. Basically as new.
