I don’t see London made 16ga hammer guns much so reached for wallet quickly.
Bores matched the BNP measurements stamped on her from 2006 so fired 2 factory shells through each barrel and patterned great.

It works well, off to the gun maker she goes for a full restoration.

| Nice find! With that line border engraving it reminds me of a Lefever G grade but with hammers. Cool. |
