Re: Show Your Bellies!

The next belly is extremely rare. It's my Dickson Patent Round Action double rifle.

Donald Dallas, in his John Dickson & Son - The Round Action Gunmaker, documents that Dickson made only 14 round action double rifles ever. I wonder how many have actually survived?







This one, #4655, is chambered .500 3-1/4" BPE and was completed Nov. 5, 1894.

Notice how much longer the action bar is when compared to my Dickson 12 bore posted just above.

It has a marvelous belly!
