Great looking Clabroughs. Gunsaholic, I haven't seen one with such nice engraving before. I picked up a lower grade hammerless boxlock, #10,283 with the rib inscription of J.P. Clabrough and Bros., Makers, Birmingham last fall. The proofmarks are pretty close to yours, though this one has bore sizes of 12 and it is an easy opener. Mine is nitro proofed for 1 1/8 oz and is marked choke on both barrels. The 3 and serial numbers by the barrel loop are the same. This has damascus barrels. I haven't seen many marked Golcher or Johnson, quite a few marked Bros though. I wonder if he had a distributer in Canada that imported under his name.
