Offering for sale my antique pre-1898 WR 12ga. This shotgun has newer sleeved barrels with no legible lettering on the rib. It has working ejectors and is chambered for 2 3/4” shells. It shoots delightfully with 1oz light target loads.

It has a wood stock extension that crawls it into a 15.75” LOP, could be easily removed for a rubber pad. 28” barrels choked mod/skeet. 1 5/8” on the comb and 2” on the heel.
The bores are good as well as the mechanicals. The photos tell the tale of furniture condition. No notable damage, just 130 years of field use. Excellent field gun and as cheap as a good WR gets.
I have history on this site, gunsinternational, and gunbroker.

This antique ships FREE to your door for $1400

Here's a photo of Tony receiving that Shaw & Hunter award at the 1970 annual EAPHA Dinner Dance. Tony Dyer, then EAPHA President and Princess (Sunny) von Auersperg presented it. I also attended the event.

Good Afternoon,
How firm are you on your Dakota 416? I am highly interested but looking at a few different guns currently.

Best,
BJ
