Yes it is. I wondered about no side safety on an FH. So a pigeon gun without a safety?

Beautiful gun. If it were mine and it was ship shape it'd definitely be a keeper. (I'll up any bid from Salopian and Barrel browner by 10 and head over in my rowboat in an hour or so  )

Well I wake up to all of these nice messages. Still wish I could nail down exactly which greener model it is. As Greener wrote in his message, 'A very nice example of an early Self-acting Royal ejector'. Is THAT the model or are there more in the Royal line. Is there somewhere around Northern Maryland, Southern Pa I could take the gun to ID? Thanks

Royal Self-Acting Ejector is the model. 63 Guineas in your letter from Graham Greener is the "grade". That's in quotes because these guns were built to order. There was no standard model. I sent you a message.

That is one seriously nice Greener. Thanks for sharing.
What we can see of the stock looks nice. How about pictures of the whole gun?

I believe the barrels were welded in the Greener shop rather than sourced outside. He was one of the few who could do everything in house.
