Dickson 250 Rook
04/04/23 10:24 AM

At Holt's November 2022 auction I won a John Dickson 250 Rook rifle. It's a beautiful little thing that makes me more than happy for all the rooks I haven't won at past Holts auctions!

Below is the lot description, a link and then some pictures I've taken now that the rifle has arrived here in the states.

A .250 (ROOK) SINGLE-BARRELLED TOPLEVER HAMMERLESS ROOK & RABBIT RIFLE SIGNED JOHN DICKSON & SON, serial no. 6072,
for 1908, 26 1/4in. black powder only octagonal barrel with matted sighting flats, standing notch rear sight with two folding leaf sights marked for 50, 100 and 150 yards and with white metal-inlaid sight lines, dove-tailed bead fore-sight, engraved 'JOHN DICKSON & SON. EDINBURGH.', and '250', and with a feathered border at the breech-end, non-selective ejector, the action with carved teardrop fences, removable striker disc, automatic safety with gold-inlaid 'SAFE' detail, border and bold acanthus scroll engraving, retaining much original colour-hardening and finish, 14 3/4in. figured pistolgrip stock with engraved and colour-hardened steel pistolgrip-cap, cheekpiece, including blued steel buttplate, Hackett-type snap-on splinter fore-end with horn finial, weight 5lb. 11oz

Link to the Holt's listing: Lot 729
