It's a Keeper's gun. . .the barrels may be replaced with steel or may be original Damascus blued. - but they are 30" standard Reilly so suspect the latter. The seller on guns international was helpful. I would suspect the price might be negotiable but don't know. If anyone wants to get into an English U-L hammergun for a decent price, this might be worth a look. Simple, no frills, no ejectors, nothing really to go wrong other than 141 years of age. It was previously auctioned at Holts a few years ago. https://www.invaluable.com/auction-...queryID=4952949b3de70fa97583422240695637 https://www.gunsinternational.com/g...-hammer-gun-cyc-mod.cfm?gun_id=103684802 Last edited by Argo44; 06/25/26 08:56 PM.

It would have had to have been within the proof dimensions for Gavin to be able to sell it. It is now offered with “clean bores” but no information on bore sizes or wall thicknesses?
