10 Bore J.P. Claybrough & Bros London (Pics)

Post by herb » Fri Nov 03, 2017 9:37 pm

Sharing some pics of my 10 Bore J.P. Claybrough & Bros hammergun
32 inch barrels, very early gun with 2 digit serial # 91. Probably made in 1880's
Very heavy and large frame, probably made for water-fowling.

Great gun. Can't get better than a hammer gun. Tough and safe as well. But I have to admit..
I love the gun case even more. Is that a Guardian Heritage series?

That is a lovely gun, Herb! Superb. Must have been refurbished but very nicely done. I am sure it will shoot for another hundred years if taken care of well. As ever, you do have great taste and kind enough to share the photos.

Best-

Thanks everyone, was always fascinated by old fashioned hammer guns.

Not a guardian, It is a custom case.
