Interesting that the first guns mentioned are both 16 bores. I owned a 16 bore George Coster of Glasgow Boxlock built in the 1920s,engraved by Harry Morrison its original case with original oil bottle. It weighed dead on 6 lb and swung well. Unfortunately a small mark in the chamber turned out to be rusting coming from under the ribs. Fortunately the dealer returned my money and had the gun resleeved,it then sold for just over half what I had paid I was tempted but didnt buy. Id like the chance to buy another as ther were few George Coster guns built and he was local to me. Graham Mackinlay has a Coster side lock for sale but at around 6500 just a little too pricey for me.
Stan I have never owned a .410 just an adapter for a single barrel 12 bore when I was younger ,the single barrel 20 bore I handled at the weekend weighted only 4lb 8oz and felt sweet so maybe I should be checking out 410s perhaps an old rook rifle conversion. Your latest gun sounds like a good buy nice long barrels and double triggers how will you have it choked or are multi chokes standard ?
