Product Description:
This Liege-built Anson and Deeley Boxlock with sideplates is a well-crafted 16-gauge shotgun that features a J. Springer stamp on the barrels. Likely produced in 1938 and proofed by Inspector Charlier Hubert, this shotgun reflects the high-quality craftsmanship typical of Liege-built firearms during the pre-WWII era. With 28.5-inch barrels, it is perfectly balanced, and at only 6.1 lbs, it is lightweight and ideal for field use or upland game hunting.
The shotgun has 65mm (2.5-inch) chambers, meaning it requires shorter ammunition, such as those made by RST or Polywad, for safe and reliable operation. The Prince of Wales stock and fine wrist design give it a traditional and classic appearance, while the 14-inch length of pull (LOP) on the front trigger and 13 1/8 inches on the rear trigger ensure a comfortable fit for most shooters. The chokes appear to be Improved Cylinder (IC) in the first barrel and Modified (MOD) in the second, offering versatility in shot patterns for different hunting or shooting scenarios.
Although the J. Springer stamp on the barrels suggests a Springer origin, this shotgun is actually a Liege-built firearm, similar to hardware store guns in the United States, but it still retains the charm and functionality of a well-made European shotgun. The gun is in excellent condition, with minimal wear considering its age.
