This is a very cool 16 gauge with long barrels, great stock dimensions, and great chokes for any upland hunting you want to do. Vickers is the English gun maker that built the Vickers machine gun that helped win WWI. This sidelock is in excellent unrestored condition. Here are the specs: Manufacture: Vickers Armstrong English 16 Gague Sidelock Model: Imperial Serial #: 1303 Proof Marks: Birmingham 1925-54 Nitro Proof 2 ½" 1oz Extractors Barrel Length: 30" Steel MWT: Left: .025 Right: .023 Chokes: Left: .014 Mod Right: .009 IC LOP: 14 ¾" over leather pad DAC: 1 ½" DAH: 2 ¼" Stock Cast: 1/8" Weight: 6lb 7oz You can view pictures at Gun Broker: https://www.gunbroker.com/item/1162882488 $2040 Shipped to your C&R FFL or FFL
