You can view that exact Lancaster O/U, serial number 13,747, shown on the Guns International site in a photo essay I wrote captions for called "How the Brits Stack Up" which appeared in the July/Aug 1994 issue of SHOOTING SPORTSMAN. In the intervening 28 years since I have learnt nowt about Lancaster O/U's.

If you would like to see the inside of a Lancaster O/U sidelock there's a fair to good illustration (figure 4) on page 157 of Don Masters Atkin Grant & Lang.

Hello Doug, out of curiosity would these guns be classified British or German? I realise historically that guns built in the UK , with foreign tubes, were classed British, but these Lancasters appear to have a great percentage of foreign build. Thanks for input thus far. Regards ,mrwmartin
