Hi all,
I picked this up recently and have had absolutely no luck in finding out anything about it except that it was reproofed in Birmingham in 1988.
It’s a 12g with a 2 1/2” chamber. 28” Damascus barrels with ¼ choke.
It has a crown with a letter V under it on each barrel, what looks like strike outs over another mark and a third which I can’t discern.
Engraving on the top of the barrels reads “ R Selby and co 20 St MARKS. B????? (Could be Birmingham) and finishes with “No 1. The underside of the forend also has No 1 stamped on it.
Anything you can tell me would be a great help.
