I saw a Williams & Powell of Liverpool for sale on Gunsamerica a while ago. It was a stunning gun. Is your's that gun, or is it another? Thanks OWD Good Gun Alerts & more: www.DogsandDoubles.com

The rebounding locks are by Stanton and are incredible quality. If you'd like to see additional photos of it go to http://www.flintchip.blogspot.com/ . You can click on any of the photos to enlarge them. Thanks for the compliment. Joe When an old man dies a library burns to the ground. (Old African proverb)

It looks like a modified Scott system. Are there any patents #s on it anywhere? It looks unusual. Thanks OWD Good Gun Alerts & more: www.DogsandDoubles.com

Joe Wood Sidelock Joined: Dec 2001 Posts: 3,964 Likes: 89 Texas	OWD, check your PM's for a detailed description of the mechanism. Let me know if you don't get it before long. Oh, a little confusing--the Simplex action is quoted in "The British Shotgun" as patent number 1247 of 1875. However, on the action's watertable is stamped "Williams & Powell Patent 531". I'm going to go with the lower number since I believe the gun was made well before the 1875 date. Last edited by Joe Wood; 07/01/07 10:46 PM. When an old man dies a library burns to the ground.
