Beautiful side by side exposed hammer 12 gauge shotgun with English stock and modest engraving. The 30" barrels are fairly bright with some old pitting that has been cleaned up. Rib is marked 'T. Wild Whittall St. Birmingham'. This post-1904 shotgun is marked with a crown over BV. Barrels are silver-gray with some brightness and some rust haze. Other steel parts are a pleasant dark blue. Action is smooth and locks tight on face. Half and full cock hold, both triggers work. Stocks have been refinished and butt stock has a pleasantly thin wrist. Note the horn accent on tip of forend. Nice old gun.
