Another old SxS.

[andy52]

I'm on a roll with these old guns. This is another Belgium SxS it's in a little better shape than the one I got a few days ago but I'm pretty certain that it's had some restoration work done on it. It is however a pretty darn clean for its age.

I really like old doubles and this one may be the nicest one I have.
Some day if I'm really lucky I'll find a nice double flinter.
Maybe one like this..right in my dreams...

I like the second from the top, the third is elegant but the leather cheek piece kinda' puts me off.

I bet that's the French one They liked those leather cheek pieces.

By the look of the lock I'd say your right.

I have a set of shot and powder flasks almost the same as your, but my shot flask is missing the D ring, oh and by the way that's a nice SxS.

Gorgeous, Platinum liners! Not to get side tracked but I hope those on a different thread questioning why we need those in our recently built guns see those.

Feltwad, you sir are a lucky man to have such works of art!

Outstanding double

That little one at the bottom would be my choice. But second from the top is a lovely piece too.
