Gatsby,
You are the man on the Paradox guns, but......
this is a Climax action and not a Dominion.
Frank - this can be verified if you look at the action flats, there will be two hooks which protrude from the front of the flats which connect to the barrels.
Otherwise, Gatsby is correct, the dimensions indicate if the gun will shoot.
In my opinion, the cheapest of cheap Paradox's will sell for at least 5K.

Okay, this gun pre dates the "Dominion" moniker by at least several decades. It is a # 2 or # 3 gun depending on the exact date (I refer to my #3 Holland rifle as a Dominion even though it was built in the 1890's). It is not what I think of as a Climax action but a derivative, I have heard the phrase Perks.
Check out this site and scroll down, they also use the word "Dominion" erroneously
