Cased rifles and shotguns

Our 10th September 2020 Arms and Militaria Sale has several high quality cased rifles and shotguns. Part of the gunmaker's art was in the casing, and the finest firearms were often supplied in case with all the accessories needed to load, fire, clean and maintain the weapon. These are a delight to collectors today and the case and related accessories can be just as interesting if not more so than the rifle or shotgun itself. 

Sold for £1,100
