Pedersoli Howdah Side by Side 20 Gauge x 50 caliber rifled Muzzleloader Shotgun Percussion 10" Blued Barrel Walnut Stock
Description: The Pedersoli Howdah Muzzleloading Shotgun in 20 Gauge is a reproduction of the Anglo-Saxon guns’ style used for the hunt in the second half of the Eighteen hundreds in the far colonial territories and India. During the first period of the British colonial government in India, the Howdah pistols became known for their power and reliability. They were preferred by the officers of the English army in the far away outposts of the wide empire. The Howdah name comes from the palanquin mounted on the elephant. The Howdah's main use was at close range to stop dangerous wild animals such as the tiger, which were known to leap upon the Howdah atop the elephants back. The locks are embellished with engraving featuring wild animals in the their natural habitat, case hardened color finish. The walnut pistol grip stock has two checkered sections to grant a firm, comfortable and stable grip, thanks to the counterweight butt plate. Similar with cased guns of the English tradition, the gun is also offered in a mahogany with accessories. Features
