Default Darne’ Halifax 16

Unbeknownst to my lovely bride, I just dropped the hammer on a 16 bore Darne’ on GB. Ever since I got a Shooters Bible for Christmas when I was 12, I have been fascinated by these unique french shotguns, and have always wanted one?.

Well now one is on the way, less than 6 lbs, straight stock, no cheekpeice...sling harware of course....

Excited!!

Will report fully when in hand!
