I have been torn about selling this double but here it goes. This is a best quality Astra sidelock ejector double with two barrel sets numbered to the gun. The figure in the walnut will make you tear up! The full coverage engraving is very tastefully done. Barrel set 1 is for upland game with 26” length and choked improved cylinder and modified (0.010” and 0.020” construction. Barrel set 2 is for waterfowling with 30” length and both choked extra full (0.050” constriction). The trigger is a manual single selective trigger. The forend is of beaver tail type with push-button takedown. The head of the stock had cracked at some point but was professionally repaired and is stable. I shot a round of sporting clays with it and it is a dream to shoot. I’m asking $2500 OBO for the set. That includes shipping to the lower 48. I will consider a partial trade for a 44-40 toggle-link lever action or Detonics combat master. Will trade straight across for a 378 Weatherby with factory wood or LAR Grizzly 45 win mag pistol. I’m partial to big bore handguns, rifles, and shotguns so if you have ideas for trade let me know!

Thanks,

RC

I was asked a few questions so I’ll post the answers here.

Length of pull is 14.125

Weight with 26 inch Barrels is 7 lbs. 2 oz.

Weight with 30 inch Barrels is 7 pounds 8.5 OZ

70 mm chambers so two and three-quarter inch as proofed. Both barrel sets are chopper lump construction.

Let me know if you have any other questions. I am game for cash sale or trades.
 
I must have missed it, what gauge please?

Dave, I could use both of them if still available. I just picked up a new .22 mag and a .22 pump that they would be perfect on.
