Project gun - Single Barreled Toplever Hammergun, 16 Ga
This traditional British single-shot breech-loading hammer gun represents a storied tradition of mid-century utility and craftsmanship originating from the United Kingdom. Designed for reliable service in the field, these 16-gauge firearms were prized for their simple action and quintessential English design.
Manufactured in 1950, this specific unit features a 30-inch barrel and a straight English wood stock, though it is currently **missing the forend**. It is offered specifically for **parts or as a project gun** and is sold with a strict no-returns policy.
The shotgun utilizes a top-lever action with extractors and a full choke, featuring a 14 ¼-inch length of pull and 14 ⅛ inches to the wood. Classified as a **Curio & Relic**, it presents a unique opportunity for a restoration specialist to return a classic hammer gun to its former utility.
