I have for sale a beautiful little Grulla 217RB with the RB standing for round body which is my favorite receiver to hunt with, keeping sharp corners of the receiver from digging into your forearm where you carry the gun. This is in the very versatile 16 gauge and features 28 3/8 inch barrels which have bores of .668 both right and left, and .007 of constriction in the right barrel for improved cylinder and .014 of constriction in the left for modified. Stock is staight, English grip l with great figure and dimensions of 1 1/2 X 2 7/16 X 15 over a checkered butt. Stock is cast off for the right hand shooter. Forend is a very small semi-beavertail with makes it much easier to shoot sporting clays or skeet with keeping your hands off the hot barrels. This gun has all the "bells and whistles" with cocking indicators, rolled trigger guard, bushed firing pins, articulated front trigger, and hand detachable locks. Weight of the nice upland gun is 6 pounds 9 ounces. The gun was built in 2003. Condition of the gun is excellent with the top lever far right of center, and only a few impressions in the wood. Engraving and checkering are in excellent condition. The model 217 features far more engraving than the 216 and to my eye is a much more attractive design. Price of the gun is $5700 plus $50 shipping to your FFL. Gun comes with the original and correct box. As always there is a three day non-firing inspection period with buyer paying shipping charges if returned. This is a wonderful gun with a very useful configuration working for all upland game as well as for clay targets. Contact me at esetter5@me.com with any questions.

Very sharp gun, but this pump gun shooter needs some remedial education. What is the small lever on the left side for.

Thanks

You unscrew it to take the side plates off/sidelocks out.

Yes, you unscrew the lever and you can easily remove the sidelocks for cleaning or repair. Makes things very easy and it is a super nice feature to have on a double.

I have a 2 barrel Grulla (28ga &20ga) that is an absolutely beautifully made shotgun. It also has the removable side plates so that if you are meticulous about maintaining your gun is a very nice feature to have as no tools are required, no screws to bugger.

Grullas were and maybe still are made to specifications (bespoke guns) not assembly line if I'm not mistaken.

Beautiful shotgun and nicely configured for either the clays or afield.

Bob, since you have the 20 and 28 gauge, you need the 16 to go along with them!
