James MacNaughton, made in 1901
12 Gauge, A & D Ejector, side-by-side shotgun
POA
We are pleased to offer this vintage boxlock ejector by James MacNaughton, that was delivered in 1901. Having just come out or storage after many years and so it is in good clean condition, everything about the gun is crisp. The action has scroll engraving with the 'James MacNaughton' banner on each side of the action and retains some hardening colour and is fitted with a dark figured stock. The gun benefits from having just had a full service, strip and clean and the wood has been gently cleaned and re-polished, the chequering cleaned out and the furniture and barrels re-blacked. The barrels are in excellent condition inside and out, and the lock-up to the action is firm and tight.
