I have a C. G. Bonehill SxS hammer gun made in Birmingham , England 1899. Its Black powder proofed and has heavy 32 inch barrels in 10 ga. Its sound and been tested , see myself shooting it with mild English " Field loads" of 3 1/4 drams of 2 F powder and 1 1/8 oz of shot.
Great channel. I have and shoot a Purdey bar in wood hammer gun Damascus nitro proof. Made in 1879. Fits me well and shoots wonderfully. I have also shot pheasants with it. Still serviceable after 140 + years. Cheers Ron
We need more Doug!
PS that is a very nice gun, is it available for sale or has someone snapped it up for themselves?
I use a WW Greener “Dominion” hammer gun, it’s still my fav for pigeons, you can also open it with the hammers cocked, just an extra layer of safety.
I still take my hammers 12 bore gun to shoot sporting clays occasionally. A George Fuller, made in 1890, 30 inch Damascus Barrels. Always shoot a light load cartridge and it is a pleasure to handle. Attracts a lot of attention at the gun club. An old boy I knew wouldn't shoot anything else but his Boswell hammers gun as his view was that "hammerless guns look like a spaniel with the ears fallen off !".
I have a Stephen Grant hammer gun, 1869, it has a Jones rotary lock underneath. It still shoots Pheasants just as well now as it did when it was made 152 years ago! It does often bring a smile to my face.
I would avoid de-cocking the hammers with the gun loaded and closed, but rather open the gun first.
Ive just bought my second one and would be happy to find yet another.
Nice vid. Good to see and hear Doug - the legend.
Absolutely love the channel and it feels even more special when Dug makes an appearance. I really need to come and visit The Oxford Gun Company one day.
Keep up the good work David. 💥💥💨💨
My EM Reilly 16 bore hammer gun has not got a fancy name, is 100 years old, survived Doug's and your scrutiny and I really enjoy using it. It does always put a smile on my face
Hammer doubles, and sometimes singles, either shotgun or rifle, are the only thing I use, or probably ever will.
Same here.
Once again thank you for another great video. It is so nice to see people take the time to appreciate things from the past. I don’t own a hammer gun, but if I ever find one I can afford I will definitely pick it up. I love shooting pieces of history.
Absolutely amazing. I still shoot my 2 hammerguns both at shooting range and in game shooting. What an absolute joy!!!! Keep up the great work. Lovely videos!!
Enjoyed the video. If the right gun comes along I would love to add it to my collection. A brisk fall afternoon on a dove field with an old hammer gun would be wonderful.
There is just something about a hammer gun that is just so amazing
I had a Pedrosoli hammer shot well and shot clays for a bit of fun. Plenty of these guns available , nice for something different. It did kick but I shot 28gms /32gms thru it.I decided to reduce my armoury so it had to move on.
How nice to see such a beautiful piece of history. Thank you 😊
Great video, I borrowed an old webly and Scott sxs hammer gun off a mate of mine, it was really nice to shoot, the only downside was that I kept forgetting to cock the hammers 🤦
I got sent the link to this by a friend from the pheasant shoot at Craigmore Station in (NZ) who knows I enjoy my hammer shotguns.
My SxS hammer shotgun is a Husqvarna, it is quite a plain back action shotgun which I use during our NZ water fowl season.
But on duck opening morning, I use my Johnathan Jones, a NZ made single barrel percussion 12g muzzle loading shotgun, it also comes out on our pheasant shoots too.
Both my shotguns use black powder and bismuth shot which give a gentle push recoil unlike a modern shell!
I'd love to see you guys do a video on muzzle loaders too.
Good video thank you and your dad for the info’s
Beautiful, David 👍🏻
The Last Time I Fired An Hammer Gun Was At The Back Of A Ship Sailing Out Of Cyprus !!
This Has Bought Back A Great Memory 😁😁👍👍
I just love a side by side.
A great channel here love ur videos and always learn something. I have a browning ou and a mirouka ss 20g and a little 410. Adding a ss hammer gum would be great and fun to have but licensing in NI where I live might say I have enough. Maybe this is why hammer guns are cheap now as u must really want one to use space on a licence
Outstanding video, you lot. Great watching!
I shoot an Eclipse Gun G when I can use lead shot. I reload my ammo using hulls and 1f Goex black powder I get at the local gun club since the sun it pre smokeless powder. Formula is simple. Scoop of powder and the same scoop of any size shot you like, including buck shot. If anyone reading this is interested, contact me online using Massinger and I will talky you thought it. Guns like this are a dime a dozen and chaper than or not the much more spendy that a new gun. Just make sure the lock is not loose. However, this can also be fixed by any lock smith willing to take the time to ad shims to tighten up the lock.
Very nice guns and lovely presented by the Doug Guys greetings from austria
I have similar one, would appreciate if you can help me with determining the year of manufacture please ??
Looking forward to this, my local has a few of these types of thing coming in and am very curious
What's the value of these guns? Can you get replacement stocks for them?
how would someone have used one for hunting? do you walk with the hammers cocked back? assuming there is no secondary safety
I’d really like to know the answer to this too!
Beautiful gun
👍🏻 i have a Hollis and sons ,
Hi how much is it?
Did he scratch his knacker at the start
I have also hammer gun DBBL Walter Locke company of England 12 bore
Beauty Gun 😍👍💎🥇🌹
Nice rifle
I have hollis and sons 12bore gun
Let's see what I can shoot with it, then the camera is aimed at the sky, then you hear somebody say pull and you hear some clanking going on, maybe it's the gun firing, maybe it's the device throwing the clay pigeons, who knows, but if he's hitting anything I sure as hell ain't seen it.
Alright, is that a regional accent or does the poor man have a speech impediment?

st Etienne le faucheux damas cal 12 1890

But then again you drive on the wrong side of the road
