Interesting that photo 13 is partially a shotgun, but it is actually a drilling, appears to be JP Sauer & Sohn. You can see the holes for the loading of the shotshells, but you can also see the extractor below them for the rifle chamber. Note the Greener safety on the side of the stock and the sliding selector button on top tang to switch between the shotgun right barrel and the lower rifle barrel. I would have liked to have seen a Merkel in the mix. Overall, nice pics.
We didn't run every photo in Taylor's book. So there's no Purdey here, nor Boss, nor Perazzi, nor Abbiatico & Salvinelli--but they're all covered in his book.
does anyone know much about a Baker 12 gauge, made in england I beleive?????
Not one purdey? I thought this was about fine shotguns? Guess not.
