12g sidelock ejector by Boss & Co – 27″ x 2 3/4″ barrels

This beautiful Boss is No 2 of a pair and was built circa 1910.  Replacement barrels measure 27” x 2 3/4”.  Engraving style on the action and locks is Boss’ best rose and scroll, and is very obviously the work of Jack Sumner.  The underside of the action reads “Boss & Co patent”, referring to Boss’ single trigger turret system, which works very positively.   The highly-figured, replacement stock measures 14 5/8″ which matches the replacement fore-end wood.  Cast off measurement for the gun is 1/8″, with bend measurements of 1 9/16″ and 2 5/16″.  I’ve known this gun for a number of years and it’s been very well looked after.  Recently it has undergone an overhaul, which included the fitting of a new cross-pin and barrels fully re-jointed.  This gun is capable of firing standard steel cartridges without alteration.

Disclaimer: To be clear, this gun is suitable for firing standard steel cartridges but is not proven for steel.

NB: All guns exported to the USA will incur an import tax of 10%
