Boswell is noted for pigeon guns. Although most Boswells are boxlocks, they have a certain aura of quality that surpasses the boxlock reputation as a second class shotgun. The "pigeon gun" mystique helps to keep Boswell above water in the English gun market. Boswells have the Scottish influence in the receiver and stock cheek area which most people find unattractive. I am presently building a custom pigeon gun at great expense with just these unattractive features. Oh well. To each his own. I would love to find a Boswell pigeon gun that meets my requirements for condition and price.
