This isn't the full side lock that we usually see. Would it still be called a sidelock or something else?

I guess that these guns were made to order. The 10 gauge weighs in at 10 pounds, while the 8 gauge pinfire is a pound and a half lighter at 8 pounds 8 ounces. The pinfire gun has what appears to be original 28 inch barrels. I wonder what the loads were for each gun.

Since the Blissett 10 bore has 34 inch barrels , my guess is thats where the extra weight comes from. Also appears to be a more robust gun than usual ones i’ve seen.
