Crafted by renowned British gunmaker J. & W. Tolley, the Altro model stands as an imposing example of London heavy-bore engineering designed for versatile shooting demands. Produced in the United Kingdom around the turn of the twentieth century, this side-by-side external hammer gun exemplifies the robust mechanical integrity and enduring quality that defined the firm’s classic sporting arms.

This 10-gauge specimen features 32-inch steel barrels with 3 ¼-inch chambers, paired with a straight English walnut stock showing a neutral cast and modest, age-appropriate handling marks. Dating to circa 1905, the shotgun remains in very good condition, displaying well-preserved metalwork and handsome grain across the buttstock.

Mechanically, the double-trigger action locks up tight on face, operating smoothly with traditional extractors along a solid tapered rib. Offering a 14 ½-inch length of pull, this commanding piece represents an authentic and well-maintained historic acquisition for the discerning collector.
