This Reilly single barrel 8 bore is for sale at Southams. Curious about the Damascus pattern (it looks sort of a mess):

Thanks Doctor. 20961 - 1877. That is a long barrel (39.5") and a hefty chamber (3.5") nitro-reproofed, with enough weight 10.5# to keep from getting emulsified by the kick. 14 1/4" stock with plenty of room for a 1/2" recoil pad. Estimate: £500 - £700
