SOLD SOLD (06/11) Inter War 1935 Patent British Greener Mark III, 12 Bore ‘EG’ Egyptian Police Contract Martini Action Riot Shotgun**UK 2003 DEACTIVATION CERTIFICATED** Sn 955 - 955
The Greener police shotgun is one of most unusual fighting shotguns which were employed by law enforcement organizations throughout former British empire. Despite its obsolete design (which traces its roots as far back as 1860s) Greener police guns can be still encountered in hands of police officers in some more remote parts of the world, mostly in Asia and Africa. Story of the Greener police gun began shortly after the WW1, when British colonial police forces requested a weapon, suitable for riot control and prison guard duty. This request was full filled by famous British gunmaker W.W. Greener, who developed a single-shot shotgun, based on the long-obsolete but rugged Martiny single-shot action. The guns featured very rugged wooden full stock with steel nose cap and butt plate, so it can be safely and routinely used not only as a gun, but also as a club, banging doors and occasional hot heads in the course of upkeeping the law and order. The Greener police gun mark III. The Greener police shot gun Mark III is a single shot weapon. It uses Martiny type hinged block action, controlled by a lever located below the stock. This is a very good original example of the Greener Mark III 12 Bore Egyptian Police Contract Martini Action Shotgun. It measures 42 ¼” overall with a 26” round steel barrel. It has the correct full stock with single barrel band, steel muzzle block with blade foresight, grooved action rear sight and steel butt cap. The all original wood stock has just light bumps and bruises to be expected with age and service use. The action & barrel are crisply marked with proofs maker & model designation and ‘EG’ to the Egyptian Police and serial number 36873 (all illustrated).

SOLD SOLD (25/10) **US Army WW1, WW2, Vietnam & British SAS In Malayia**1913 Browning FN Auto-5 1900 Patent ‘Humpback’ Military 12 Gauge Semi Automatic Combat Shotgun**UK 2001 DEACTIVATION CERTIFICATED**Sn 5070 - 5070
The Browning Auto-5 was the first mass-produced semi-automatic shotgun. Designed by John Browning in 1898 and patented by John Browning in 1900 and manufactured by Fabrique Nationale de Hersta, Belgium. It was produced continually for almost 100 years by several makers with production ending in 1998. It features a distinctive high rear end, earning it the nickname "Humpback". The top of the action goes straight back on a level with the barrel before cutting down sharply towards the buttstock. This distinctive feature makes it easy to identify A-5s from a distance. A-5s were produced in a variety of gauges, with 12 and 20 predominating. The shotguns saw military service worldwide from World War I through the Vietnam War. The weapon was used heavily by members of the Special Air Service in the Malayan Emergency, who found the semi-automatic shotgun perfect for close quarter jungle fighting. British troops utilized the unaltered Browning Auto-5 Sporter with long barrels, supplemented by Remington 870-R slide action shotguns with 20” barrels. The British found that the number of semi automatic shotguns in a patrol were directly proportional to the number of kills made when encountering a guerilla group. This weapon is serial number ‘41027’ which dates its manufacture to 1913, just before the outbreak of WW1. This 27 ½” barrelled Browning Auto-5 combat shotgun is in excellent condition. It measures 47 ¼” overall. Its wood stock is excellent with chequered grip panels & ribbed butt. The action is stamped with Browning & FN manufacturer detail (illustrated). The gun has a flat plate peep sight and bead fore sight & forward sling swivel. The underside of the shoulder stock has a void brass escutcheon. Deactivated to UK specification in 2001 the action locks back as it should & it dry fires. The price includes deactivation certificate & UK delivery. Sn 5070
