Best Quality Round Action Game Gun
DICKSON John & Son
Shotguns
Category : C
Caliber : 12/65mm/2½"
A superb round action side-by-side DICKSON game gun manufactured circa 1911.
The typical action uses the trigger plate system patented by the prestigious Scottish gunmaker and a traditional double bolting to the barrel lugs with a third safety lock on the doll head tubes extension.
The ejection system is integrated and the mechanism acts as an easy opener.
The action and furniture are engraved with fine English scrolls and bouquets and the quality of execution of the ornamentation allows assigning the work to Jack SUMNER workshop who treated almost all DICKSON before the First War.
Large rim extractors ensure the ejection from the 28" chopper lump "Vickers Steel" barrels, bored to Ø.730'' and choked 5/10° and 9/10°.
The 14¾" L.O.P straight stock is made of beautiful figured French walnut, while the splinter forearm is locked by a Purdey push button set in a scalloped hood.
This gun is remarkably balanced with a 6lb 1oz net weight rigorously distributed 3lb 0,5oz for the barrels with forend and 3lb 0,5oz for the stock and action.
In a perfect state of preservation, that DICKSON gun comes in its original oak and leather case and bears our full guarantee
