Was the high bidder on a 16 bore H&H made in 1882. Wish it still had the damascus barrels but then if it did I most likely would not have won. https://imgur.com/a/Vh3hs

I had a 16 Webley Scott just like it. A very nice gun you have there. Are you sure the barrels are not original fluid steel?

I bought a very similar gun from you years ago. V&R Blakemore of London. Love that gun.

The barrels have been sleeved by H&H.

Still lovely, and depending on the balance maybe a truly awesome shooter still I'd hope that since H&H also did the sleeving they would have matched the original barrel weight, which I assume is in their records, preserving the balance.
My problem lies in reconciling my gross habits with my net income.

This is a beauty! Lucky you, mine is a 'clumsy' 12g.
With kind regards,
