I have an Army & Navy Double Rifle/Shotgun that I am looking to find some information and possibly the value. I would imagine pictures are needed in order to get a better idea of what it is, but I will explain some of the details. It has double exposed hammers, two triggers, left barrel is rifled, right barrel is a smooth bore, it has two rear sights (one is a flip down), the slide lever to break open is located underneath the tirggerguard, it has brittish crown stamp with the V under it located on the reciever and can be seen when the action is open, has Army & Navy C.S.L. London stamped on the barrels and receiver, also located on the reciever under the barrels when the action is open is A & N C S L. Thanks for the info. You can always e-mail me at clinthecker@hotmail.com or post a response here. Thanks.

Welcome to the board. What a nice question as a first post!

Briefly, it is an underlever hammer Cape gun. Army & Navy was a co-op stared by British military officers for the purpose of provisioning themselves with wine at fair prices - the business model worked and A&N quickly expanded into many lines of goods, including guns. A&N supplied Birminghm made, many by Webly & Scott, guns in all original quality grades, farmer/colonial to best work. Cape guns were generally bought as all-around hunting guns by settlers and explorers; hunters tended to buy more purpose built guns.

If you care to, the University of Glasgow holds the A&N records and will research your serial number for a modest fee.

It is easy to post ditital photos and they are very helpful in valuation.

Link takes me to an image hosting site, but not to a specific image. Good start, though. Try again.
