Indians For Guns

A rare classic double in 333 Jeffery, no manufacture markings except MADE IN GERMANY. Most likely built in Schul,date of manufacture is Aug 1926, a product of the German Gun guilds, sold in India as the Maharajas caliber. So named because it was the favourite of the rich for taking dangerous game in India when in the company of other hunters and beaters!!. An Holland and Holland style pistol grip- most un German. Long lenth of pull - about 14.5 inches, light and wonderfully balanced.Clamshell action with a Greener cross bolt. Restocked, has seen bad use by its first owner but still groups tight. The 500 yds leaf sight is pure optimism. Flip up moon sight for low light/night shooting.The 333 is a truly classic round (Tremendous interest in the US now abt this chambering) with its long 300 grain bullet at 2150 fps it had fantastic penetration and was used with effect in Africa for Elephant hunting.
