I know a local gentleman who owns a Greener 8 bore that was made on special order for export to the USA. Baltimore Maryland was the location of the original owner. It is an Pincepts action. It does have a full set of English proofs on it.

The engraving doesn't look right and no proofs . I think a well done copy of a Greener.

George: You could be correct but do you know of others that are copy's of W.W.Greeners. Thomas

Thomas:
Can we please see the action flats, barrel flats, and forend iron?

It may help.

I do not think this is a "copy." Who would copy a low grade Greener? And for God's sake why?

John: I'll take some tomorrow. How low of grade do think it is. Thomas

A Japanese knock-off of a Greener. A buddy who spent some time in Japan working for the Pacific Stars & Stripes, has a couple of Japanese made knock-offs of more typical Birmingham boxlocks.

I have seen a Belgian copy of a Greener. Japanese copies of Westley Richards A&D actions are well known.

The engraving not only does not look like Greener's, it has an Asian look.

No way a gun is built in England without proof. Export or not.

I think Researcher is right. Not because he agrees with me. Because he is always right.

Thomas,

When I say it is a copy I am not implying that it is of low quality. The Japanese have made many very nice guns. Judge it in hand for yourself.

George

I'm having a lot of fun with this so keep the comments coming. I have no clue what it is but I'm leaning in the direction of Japanese copy. I need to have the barrels repaired so may not be worth the effort. Thomas

I don't know if this will help but here goes. Thomas
