Nice Beretta Muskokajoe, I have that model on my want list. Enjoy it this fall.
Beretta 486 Parallelo 20ga. Picked up from Al Flaherty’s on sale about a month or so ago. Lucked out to this beauty being in a sealed box and never handled, and on the sale...
Stay tuned ...there's a 28 gauge version here in the shop waiting in line for new clothes

I didn't know Beretta made the 486 in 28 gauge but I see it's listed on their website now, that would be sweet!
Beautiful 20 gauge there Muskokajoe!

Very nice gun. My uncle has the 12 gauge and I have handled it and its a spectacular piece that I would be happy and proud to own.

That Iside looks like a very nice bird gun! Can i ask who you bought it through?
Here's the latest, circa 1880s back action Charles Osborne hammergun. Twist barrels, she's in good shape but very loose. Looks like it was well used but well taken care of. Superficial pitting on ends of barrels on the outside and none inside just dirty. Black powder proofed only, I will not be firing this gun until I have it looked over by a double gunsmith. I might put a couple 3/4 ounce 2 1/2 inch smokeless shells through it remotely if it passes inspection and get it tightened up.

Horsley 12 ga. hammer d.o.m. 1875
This is a gun that some would have seen in Oshawa this past June. It is one of those rare finds: all original and in fantastic shape, maker's case, and known provenance. Bar-in-wood stocking and side lever are the cherries on the cake. Horsley guns were absolutely of the best mechanical construction and workmanship, but like this one were often ordered to be austere with minimal use of engraving.

Thanks for the kind comments, Pinfire and Falconflyer.
It’s a wonderful thing that guns were made for all purses and uses. While this is the plainest line engraving I’ve ever seen, the gun has the nice shape of all back-action hammer guns, and I hope it passes inspection!Here's the latest, circa 1880s back action Charles Osborne hammergun.
