I had a beautiful Darne 28 ga. R-15 28" I bought from Steve Barnett at the Southern SxS years ago. Unfortunately I had to sell it to help finance an emergency surgery for my English setter. I had to let the gun go but had another year and a half with him including a last hunting season. It was more than worth it; I didn't miss the gun very long but I still miss him today. Your gun is the nicest vintage Darne I have seen; the only one so far with the retailer's name on the gun. Thanks for sharing!

I had a Darne in 12g. I was always intrigued by the action. I believe I traded it back to its former owner on this site. If that gun would have been this 28g, it would still be in my possession!! That’s a very nice Darne you have there.

I have no knowledge of Darne's but this one is at a local dealer advertised as an R16 20ga with 29.5" barrels with a sticker price of $3000 CDN.... is it worth it?
