Greener,s book, Modern Shotguns, published in 1888 shows a full page, illustrated ad; for W.W. Greener,s "Trap" Gun. Price for a 12 bore is given as 10:10:O Pounds stirling.The ad; states;"the gun is specially designed to meet the requirements of American sportsmen".The gun is stated to have Treble grip and top lever.
The gun pictured has a top lever, semi pistol grip stock and is scroll engraved as per the grade 3 example pictured on page 95 of Graham Greener,s book, The Greener Story. I have seen two of these trap guns, both matched the description and illustration in in the 1888 ad.
