Beautiful hand made sidelock SxS from a Pedersoli Kit. Kit costs $1700 without all the work to make it as complete and as beautiful as this one. The gun was completed with the classic English Alkanet (Red) linseed oil finish and is still at the oil once a year stage. The hardware is case colour hardened although I polished the butt, the triggers and part of the trigger guard because then it matched my other Pedersoli Shotgun and it looks nicer to my eyes. The original nipples replaced with more powerful musket cap nipples and this gun never misfires.
Here is a link to the US site where it is described in more detail and sells for about $1700 cdn before spending months to finish it:

I love this beautiful gun and was successful with it hunting pheasant, but then I inherited a 12 Gauge Eugartechea shotgun and so no longer use this, and I am parting with it along with all my other shotguns. The only issue is the small crack (completely fixed) in the bottom of the forearm as shown in the pictures.
Also comes with over $100 of supplies so it can be used as soon as you buy it.
