Thanks for your recommendation. I see they are located in the USA. But will keep the contact.

Yes, that was the plan B I had in mind.... I have a milling machine, so it should not be a problem.

Ken, what is a silver pad? I am not familiar with the name. Maybe the metal protection some stocks have so the wood is not damaged will resting? I have seen many H&H shot guns form the early days with no pad, just a very nice checkering. Shotguns will certainly shoot many many more times than a...

Yes, that is a good solution!

I love plain stocks with the original checkering. A solution is to use those rubber pads than can be installed and removed as they are press fitted with rubber.

Today, all modern guns will have rear pad in the stock to reduce recoil and make it more comfortable. But from what I see on old catalogues, rifles used to have a pad, but double rifles didn’t. For example I have in front of me the Holland catalogue from 1910, where rifles would have pads, but...

Nice, thanks for the information Any other option/source?? What about 3 leaf??

Hello, I am searching for a store to buy 2 or 3 leaf sights, but only find them in USA. Any good store in EU/UK to buy very specialized parts like a 2-3 leaf sight? Regards Paco

As far as I know, normally stock will be straight (or neutral), but they can also be bent to the right or the left (think they call is casteroff, casterin??) I always thought that bent or caster, was made directly when carving the stock wood, but yesterday to my surprise, I discover the stock...

Thanks for that link. Fortunately, I have a set of chamber cleaning brushes, so I will get the 16bore one and fit it to the gun. I was not aware the gun would originally come with one. The oil can is already in the case, so great. I like the vaseline can..... I may try fo find one or buy it...

yes, that is my thought, that it is not an original rod.... It could be metal, but if not marked, it was mostly impossible, as the rest of the accesories are marked. It would make no sense all of them marked, and the cleaning rod was not.

Yes, the records will show a best quality leather case, with crown engraved (Marqueese), but nothing about the internal accesories. Not that easy to find accesories in the market, althougt I just bought a H&H flask at ebay UK jajaja. Its always nice to hace a flask after a good...

Yes, it is a number 2. First thing was to order a full search at H&H records. Invaluable information.

Yes, gun was ordered in 1909, and delivered in 1910.

The gun stock is not original, so I dont have problem to cut 2cm, so it can fit the original position. Of course H&H would certainly not make the case or the accesories, but they will all be marked, and the cleaning rod would be strange to be the only accesory with no mark/stamp. Could you...

Hello all I have an original leather case from a 1910 Holland & Holland (16gauge Paradox hammerless) Leather case is in very good condition although one strap is missing and the other one has a missing end. I will make a replica strap, and repair the original one making an extension and giving...

Hello Caldix, yes, I live in EU, but Spanish regulation is like from another world... My options: FIRST: original paradox ammo, not available SECOND: commercial modern ammo: only option is the Topas Sabot Nature. Just got an email from Breneke factory, they don't even know what Paradox is...

George, I wish they where 16ga one... but I have no luck :-( hope you can find them a new home Don't you have the Paradox gun they came with??? I hope you are not splitting the gun and the tools. It would be a shame

Bonjour Caldix!! Thanks for your kind words Yes, I already have fully documented the history, after having asked H&H for its history. Yes, the gun has 3 sights, 50-100 and 150 yard (veeeery optimistic?) I was not aware that magnum guns had 3 sights, and non magnum had 2. I dont have the gun...

Hello Caldix: I am in the same situation of not having access to 16ga original H&H ammo (although there are is new production for the 12ga), and I cant reload. Like your friend I have been searching for modern slug ammo, but for the 16ga there are very few options. Specially I have found 2...

Hello all I am new to the forum and was excited to read so much information on Paradox guns. I have a H&H 16 gauge paradox shot gun. It is a secong grade gun, I think that is the previous level to Royal ones. It was originally delivered on 1910 to a Spanish Marquese, and it is in exceptional...
