The guns that I was familiar with were originally 20 guage acions,sold by Cape Outfitters. They had no 3rd hidden lug, and only the Purdey double bite. These were chambered in 450 no.2 nitro express, and one bulged the chamber on the 2nd shot. The other one went off face in 6 rounds. I contacted Mr.Sargent from William Douglass, and he said he had not made any double rifles,that they were built from kits, and he had no control over what people chambered them for.
They were to be in 45/70 at the most.
Cape Outfitters went out of bussiness years ago, so no one is suing them.(the owner died)
I just left you guys know about the dangers of these guns as I was informed. I am not a As....e. And my brains are in my head proper.
I just wanted to keep someone safe. And pass the information that I had on.
