Old British Sidelock - Pics

Post by herb » Sat Nov 07, 2020 12:42 am

Sharing some pics of my old sidelock SxS shotgun for the fans of vintage shotguns, has some character given her age and should be able to hold her own in the company of the younger crowd..

Henry Adkin and Sons, 57 Highstreet Bedford. Gun is in nice condition with Rigby style dipped edge sidelocks and has nitro proofs.

Lovely gun there, Herb. Clean lines, crisp engraving and an overall tidy classic British game gun. Thanks for sharing the photos.
