The Army & Navy Co-operative Society holds a distinguished place in British sporting history, renowned for producing high-quality firearms that epitomize the traditional English shooting experience. This 12-gauge hammer gun, manufactured in 1925, serves as a classic representation of the side-by-side design and robust craftsmanship favored by sportsmen during the early twentieth century.

This specific unit is in very good condition and is fitted with a straight English walnut stock that highlights the firearm's refined heritage. The 30-inch barrels, which feature a tapered ventilated rib, appear to have been professionally re-blued, maintaining a clean and sophisticated aesthetic throughout the piece.

Built with double triggers and an extractor-based action, the firearm locks up tight and provides the mechanical precision required for a reliable field gun. With a 14 ½-inch length of pull and a total weight of 6 lbs 9 ⅖ oz, this shotgun is balanced for versatile use, featuring 2 ½-inch chambers and a cylinder and improved cylinder choke configuration.
