Description: *** SOLD *** Handsome and sturdy William Palmer Jones 12 bore boxlock ejector owned by a man named H.H. Williamson with an intriguing past “On her majesty’s service”. Scalloped action with specially carved stock where it mates with the scallops on the action body. Very highly figured French walnut stock and forearm and splinter forearm. No. 14361 was made 1896 – 97 as a lightweight action. Double triggers, auto safety, side clips and very nicely engraved. Cased in a canvas & leather case with C.B. Vaughan label. Vaughan was a local sporting goods dealer serving the upscale clientele working in the center of London. At 6lb 2oz this twelve bore was easy to carry for a day afield. The 28” sleeved barrels have a top extension for strength and are Birmingham nitro proofed for 2-1/2” shotshells and 1-1/8 oz loads.

The straight grip stock and splinter forearm are made of exceedingly well figured French walnut and has a thin horn buttplate. The area where the stock mates with the scallops in the frame has special carving and checkering. Stock dimensions are 14-3/8” by 1-5/8” by 2-1/4”. Cast off for the righthand shot. A handsome lightweight double gun with an intriguing back story. Very highly figured stock with special carving and checkering. Nicely engraved and quick handling. Please note that the photographs are part of the description. Not for sale where prohibited by state or local laws. Buyer is responsible for all shipping, insurance, and any other related charges. I give a 3-day non-firing inspection period which begins when it arrives at the buyer’s FFL or specified address if the gun is classified as an Antique. Returns at buyer’s expense.
