Hi Guys I have always liked the early doubles, this oval bore with the slide and tilt mechanism was one I always wanted
I have watched it for several years and with the boredom of isolation and the hope that a realistic reduction in price might be forthcoming gave it a punt
Anyway.........................................
Made in 1873 and sold to a Walter Bowden
It is in .450 3 1/4" foil cartridge (drawn brass cases do not fully chamber, neither do any of the .450/400s [based on 3 1/4" case] so its not length but tight halfway down the chamber
Non rebounding locks and stalking safeties in front of hammers
Nice scroll engraving
Bores are like new but could not get a good pic
Lancaster's slide and tilt action is completely different to the Jones underlever
