Thanks Owen for the compliment and interest in the gun. I could write an entire article about the mystery surrounding this gun and its condition but that is a discussion for another thread. A Webley & Scott SLE 16 bore. Built in 1906. Has 30 barrels and in 1961 was re-proofed for 2 chambers. Most likely the chambers were lengthened as part of a very well done restoration. Current condition would suggest it has not been used very often. The original chokes were IC/Full and I had them opened to Skeet/IM. The stock was bent to my measurements and the LOP is 14 5/8. Weight is 5 lbs 15 oz.

Its a beautiful light weight 16 bore SXS that has spent too many years resting in its old hard case. A gun that handles this nice is truly a pleasure to shoot on passing doves (or any other game birds).
