R. Blanton Boxlock Ejector, 12 Ga, 30" Barrels
Crafted in the United Kingdom in 1922, this 12-gauge side-by-side sidelock by R. Blanton reflects the venerable traditions of interwar British gunmaking tailored for versatile shooting. Built with 30-inch barrels, a solid tapered rib, and 2 ½-inch chambers, the platform delivers the refined balance and proportions characteristic of classic English game guns.
This unit features a walnut Prince of Wales stock cast for a right-handed shooter, presenting an honest character and historic repairs that reflect a well-used and cherished firearm. Internally, the barrels preserve bright, clean bores regulated with fixed Improved Cylinder and Modified chokes.
Mechanically, the action locks up tight on the face and cycles reliably with double triggers, an automatic safety, and strong ejectors. Offered under C&R eligibility, this distinctive sidelock represents an authentic piece of English sporting heritage.
