Sideclips, cocking indicators, not bad! The sideplates look as if they may contain an intercepting sear as well, no?
Great to see it go to a good home. Use it in good health.
Best,
Ted

That's a nice looking gun and the price should not be mentioned again. I like the rounded top very much. Are those cocking indicators?

Looks like a pretty gun, but never heard of the maker. The lock plate design from the outside reminds me of an early Henry Atkin. I think the model name was called Raliegh or something like that.

Euro trash like that is giving JABC a bad name. Please keep pictures of that type of gun to yourself. Proper disposal should be undertaken at the soonest possible time. If you are unable to dispose of this eye sore forward it to me for proper disposal. I would pay shipping if it makes a hardship on you to send it to me by the weekend.  That is one of the nicer looking "finds" that I have seen lately. It also proves that sellers who do not know how to repair guns should not take them apart. That little bit of home gunsmithing cost him a lot of money. Weither he did it himself or the owner before him did it the result was a good gun made to look like a basket case. His loss and your gain. For the amount of money you have in it you could afford to have the stock fixed properly and that gun would be a real keeper. If I were you I would get the information about the stock repair man in Northen England from the "Faux grain" post about five days ago and have him fix the stock for you. Some of his work if flawless and a real eye opener. Good find.

Where it mine, I would get the screws repaired correctly, do the faux grain thing for the butt extension and then simply enjoy it.
Nice to see a discerning person buying the gun.

I owned a very nice example of a Manufacture Liegoise 16 gauge hammergun that I acquired from our friend John Mann. The gun was well made, nicely finished and well balanced. It took alot of Nebraska pheasants and quail. I had to sell it to make room for a French gun that I just had to have. For $450 you stole that gun!!!
Best,
Dustin

Neat, high quality 'ML' shotgun from a well known pistolet automatique maker.
