GREENER EG Mk. III SPECIAL POLICE 14 Gauge Martini Shotgun Egypt C&R
Single Shot RIOT / PRISON GUARD 14 Gauge C&R Shotgun
Description: GREENER EG Mk. III SPECIAL POLICE 14 Gauge Martini Shotgun Egypt C&R Single Shot RIOT / PRISON GUARD 14 Gauge C&R Shotgun Here we present a C&R Greener EG Mk. III Special Bore Shotgun in 12 Gauge, manufactured circa the 1920s in Birmingham, England. The Greener police shotgun, the roots of which go back as far the 1860s, is one of most unusual fighting shotguns which were employed by law enforcement organizations throughout Britain as well as British Egypt (1882-1954). The history of this shotgun began just after the completion of World War I, when colonial police forces requested a weapon suitable for riot control and prison guard duty. A second request was that the gun should use proprietary ammunition not available through commercial channels, making illegal use from guns stolen or taken away from police more complicated for criminals. This request was fulfilled by the famous British gunmaker W.W. Greener, who developed a single-shot shotgun, based on the long-obsolete but rugged Martini single-shot action. This new gun fired proprietary shells and featured a very rugged wooden full stock with steel nose cap and butt plate, so it can be safely and routinely used not only as a gun, but also as a club, banging doors and occasional hot heads in the course of upkeeping the law and order. The proprietary cartridge differed in that it had a circular channel around the exterior of the primer. The shotgun itself has 3 firing pins that come out of the breech face at once in a line. The center firing pin is meant to detonate the primer but the other two act as the safety measure. If the gun is not loaded with the right type of ammunition (a shell that does not have the groove around the primer) the center firing pin will not make contact with the primer. The overall condition is very good. Solid stock. The markings are clear. Bright, smooth bore. This examples barrel is littered with proof marks. A fascinating shotgun that would have no doubt got the job done! This firearm is classified as a Curio & Relic. Barrels: 26 inches. Caliber: 14 Gauge Overall condition as seen in photos. Very Fast. Very Safe. FREE SHIPPING. Will need to be sent to your local FFL or C&R licensee. This firearm is classified as a Curio & Relic. Guaranteed AUTHENTIC & Includes CERTIFICATE OF AUTHENTICITY. ancestryguns $1115 #210713 SOLD Curio/Relic: Yes |
