Re: 10 ga Blanch double rifle

Excellent example of the gunmakers art

The later/minimalised? percussion style fences always a bonus

Good rebrowning brings out the 2 (or 3?) stub damascus barrels to good effect

A wide (cape gun type) rib may suggest a South African or Indian history

The 10 bore was a general purpose rifle good for all game but agree with Lancaster possibly a little light for pachyderms in Black Powder

Sidelock and Jones underlever the standard for the time before the idea that back action locks were stronger?

I would certainly give it space in my gunroom!

Good luck in shooting it
