Have have become a fool for vintage hammer guns since restoring an old Steven's 235 two years ago. That shotgun has brought me here. Came to me in unshootable condition. As of the last weekend (2021) of Special Whitewing season here in Texas I have shot 40+ ww doves with it. What BEAUTIFUL works of art this gentleman is displaying!
I have two Stevens A&T 235's;. A 16 gauge with a set of 18.5 inch barrels (matching numbers to the gun, professionally cut and rebeaded), and a set of 30" barrels. Other one is a twelve gauge 30" barrels with nice case color on the receiver and checkered stock and forearm. Both take rabbits and varmints every year. My absolute favorite guns!
Most all of those guns were in better condition than mine. I’ve got a Neumann Bros 12 ga. ‘The Interchangeable’. Finish a bit rough, but condition reasonable. Good lockup and bore condition. Surface rust and dents/scores in stock. Quite elaborate engraving in metal and stock. I hope I’m able to enjoy firearms when I’m his age.

Good prices. If I were there and could bring back to the U.S., I would take that whole table at once. I do love back-actions, but every time I find a good gun for sale, it ends up being another bar-lock, and I'm not sure why this always happens to me, other than it being a curse placed long ago. I will have to visit this shop the next time I'm there. Wish I had known when this video was made, as I was there at the time.
My grandpa left me at 1890 to 1915 era acme double barrel double trigger Damascus what does it take to shoot Damascus barrel shotguns safely or can it be done or are they just wall hangers
You inspect the barrells for deep rust. If rusted badly you cannot safely shoot. Look at the lockup and if its tight with no looseness you can safely shoot black powder shells
@@wendychamber6597Even me, a Ukrainian, have understood this kind man. Bat, as a doctor, I'd advice you tu visit an otolaringologist. Sincerely yours.
In the USA laminated barrel shotguns are legally not guns, and no FFL is needed. Can be shipped directly to your place. This is how I bought my 1892 16 ga Richards.

Beautiful Shotguns. Love them. I would buy a couple from you but i am in USA. Check out the old English hammer shotgun i just posted a video on my site. Its a J.P. Clabrough. Very informative. Thank u. Stay safe in these horrible times with this virus.
I dunno about that, I was just watching a UA-cam video about old shotguns, 50+ years, blowing up and causing injuries to the shooter and those around. Something about metal fatigue accelerated by the corrosive action of shotgun powder.
999 English pounds is equal to 1241.10 in USD. Not a bad price for an timeless masterpiece. A gun show vendor would be trying to sell it for 3500+. Poor fella. He talks like he has suffered a stroke. 4-9-2023
Okay, I'm willing to concede that because of his age and his access to those items, he just might be a very knowledgeable man on the subject, but I can't understand a word that's coming out of his mouth, and putting on the closed captioning makes it worse!!!! Unfortunately, I only have one double barrel shotgun and it's an older black powder unit from Belgium in poor condition. I intend on fixing all the little things that are too way too rough, broken or simply missing and will be duplicating a pair of barrels to shoot modern ammo.
Good afternoon, iam needing a little help, i would love to find the age of an old cogswell and harrison 16 bore pinfire shotgun. Serial number 7209. Thanks.
Kudos of respect for this guy. Even though I don't understand a word he says.
Hammers are the most gorgeous type of shotgun, still having an echo of the old caps and flints era.
Very knowledgeable man! Wish I could have understood more than every third sentence; but just that bit was still a wealth of info and he certainly has a fine collection of old school ‘don’t make them like that anymore’ gorgeous hammer guns, love em’.

I currently have a double barrel hammer gun from my grandfather (born in 1920), it’s a beautiful piece, probably the gun I am the proudest to own
Wow a good selection of hammer guns
Wish I never sold mine many many years ago. Thanks

It should have been much older. But hammer guns are still made today.
Can you shot modern shotgun shots on those ?
if they have been nitro proofed, yes
Yes, unless you mean common, store-bought shells. Then the answer is perhaps.
Short answer is no
