Up for sale in time for bunny and grouse season. A very solid and tight
Ex shooting Jansenn Sons & Co. Belgium made sxs. It has 2 3/4" chambers. External hammers. The barrels are 30" choked imp cyl and mod. Bores are ex considering age.
No dents no bulges. Bores are bright very minima pitting ( frost ) in spots NO EFFECT ON USAGE . , barrels have ( false damascus ) etched patterns .They are fluid steel...made to resemble damascus.
Was confirmed with a test they're indeed false or ( faux damascus ) though rib says fine damascus..was told by a well versed Smith was a sales ploy back in day..as damascus guns were more elegant....and more $..so theyd etch fluid guns to resemble damascus. There are no welds visable ...Just a pattern...and charge average Joe a little extra for it... ( like having fake leather instead of real leather in a car ).....
Metal on barrels is VG no rust or external pitts, bluing/blackening. Minor wear. The wood is solid. Absolutely no cracks.
Checkering is decent. Action is tight. Gun Shoots very well. It was missing the butplate. Ive located a replacement and is included with the sale. Was using a slip on to shoot it. As it came to me missing the pad. Prior owner was going to fit an olde English pachmyr pad and list the original. However I've located a very very close match. ( steel ) .
Before everyone harps...im well versed in SxS. And.... this is well above average cond for a Belgium gun usually.... thats not loose and cracked to smithereens... asking 450$
Plus shipping.... fair price in today's markets...
Its a solid gun , if your hunting with standard loads . Ive fired atleast 200 rounds without a hitch. 2 3/4" and 2.5" smokeless loads. 1 1/8 Oz.
Zero issues. Patterns very well.
No trades at this time. I accept e transfers.. and valid PAL IS REQUIRED..PAL WILL BE VERIFIED.
