Hei

 

Har en gammel engelsk s\s hagle liggende i kal 12\70 av merke W.R Pape,er produsert i 1923. Våpenet er veldig pent med engelsk rett stokk som er laget i fransk valnøtt ( pene tegninger)Horn bak kappe. Våpenet er veldig bra tilpasset og virker som det er lagt mye arbeid i tilpassing av stokk etc. Kassen er nesten fri for gravyre kun navnet som er gravert inn. Løpene er speilblanke bortsett ifra 3 små flekker bakerst mot kammeret, men disse er det ingen fare med.Våpenet er bortsett ifra det i veldig bra stand. Ikke antydning til slark. 1\4 - 3\4 trangborring. Våpenet er en Bokslås. Bilder kan sendes ved forespørsel.

Noen som vet noe om verdi på et sånn våpen??

W.R.PAPE

William Rochester PAPE of Newcastle upon Tyne started his business in 1857 & in the following years wins The Field Trials 1858, 1859, & 1866. In 1859 PAPE organises the first dog show in Great Britain & the prizes are PAPE shotguns.

 

IN 18666 PAPE patents a single bite snap action which contains the earliest known description of choke borings & is widely recognised as the inventor of choke boring shotguns, winning a prize of ten guineas in 1875 in a competition organised by the Field newspaper.

 

PAPE died in 1923 following a road accident & the business ceased in 1940.
