[King Cobb]

So I wish to express my gratitude to those of you who have been answering my questions both on the forum and in pm's regarding english guns.

I had originally had an interest in possibly adding a 2 inch jeffery to the stable and that led me in a variety of directions, but after researching gun info, talking to others who are far more knowledgeable than I, and emailing with various individuals I put a deposit down with Kirby at Vintage Doubles on what his description refers to and my research supports is a "Best" boxlock.

No it isn't a purdey or an H & H or a Boss or even a Greener which I grew up hearing about whenever the subject of American or English shotguns came up in my family, but it fits my budget and from what Kirby has told me and the pictures I have, it will do nicely for me as my English Gun. Anyway pics are below. It weighs in at 6lbs 3oz, 28 inch barrels, .023 and .021 minimum barrel thickness, built in 1909, it was one of a pair originally I gather and have been told based off the gold #1 on it, it has bushed firing pins and intercepting safety sears, choked at .022 left and .007 right, with 14.5 LOP.
