Ah, but is it actually a 12 bore? Ah've got an old Linsley Bros hammerless s/s that was built around the 1880's or 90's, black powder jobbie and is measured at 13 and 14 'bore'..... also an old belgian s/s hammer jobbie that's pretty fecked, an old old single hammer jobbie that was made around the time of the poet Robert Burns (Dumfries Volunteers) which was found under the attic floor boards of an old town house in Dumfries.

well im assuming from the size its a 12 but cud be a bit bigger, i have today had a go with some 12 bore cartridges which i actually like very much, a 12 bore cartridge with only one single large lump ov lead stuck in the end, it blew a hole ( literally peeled back the steel ) in a piece of quater plate in the hedge at our workshops, got 3 more ov em, gonna see wot they does to a couple of cinder blocks next wekend.
p.s a couple ov new pics added to my my gallery
