Belgian .410 Folding Sidelever Hammergun
Produced in Belgium in 1939, this single-barreled folding hammergun represents a distinct era of European utilitarian firearm design. Utilizing a classic sidelever action, this lightweight model was originally crafted as an accessible and reliable companion for the field.
Often described as a fun little .410, this specific single-barrel, sidelever folding hammergun remains in fair condition, exhibiting the honest wear and character of a pre-war piece. It is fitted with a straight English wood stock featuring a neutral cast, yielding a 14 ⅛-inch length of pull & drop measurements of 1 inch at the comb by 2 ¼ inches at the heel.
Mechanically, the action locks up securely and operates with a single trigger, a manual safety, and ejectors to efficiently clear the 3-inch chamber. This versatile field gun is equipped with a 28-inch barrel featuring no rib and a fixed modified choke, weighing a remarkably light 3 pounds 11 ½ ounces with an overall length of 43 ¼ inches.
