An interesting video look at Percy Stanbury's SXS shotgun - which might have the most major wins for a SXS in shooting history.

In the video, David called it a Webley 700. However, if it was built in 1921, it wouldn't be a model 700. The shotgun in the video looks like it has the Screw Grip rib extension. More likely is a customized Proprietary Model 400.

It was a 400 and was described as such in the Mike Yardley article in DGM’s link earlier
