Bryant Ridge's Analysis:
A double-barreled shotgun is a type of shotgun with two parallel barrels, allowing for two quick successive shots. Modern double-barreled shotguns, also known as doubles, typically have break-open actions, with the barrels tilting up at the rear to expose the breech ends for unloading and reloading. Doubles are more compact than repeating designs such as pump action or lever-action shotguns because there is no reciprocating action needed to eject and reload the shells.

Doubles are more compact than repeating designs such as pump action or lever-action shotguns because there is no reciprocating action needed to eject and reload the shells.
There are two basic configurations of doubles: side by side (SxS) and over/under (O/U), which indicate the arrangement of barrels. The original double-barreled guns were mostly SxS designs, which was a more practical design in the era of muzzle-loading firearms. Early cartridge shotguns also used the SxS action because they retained the exposed hammers of the earlier muzzle-loading shotguns they evolved from. When hammerless designs became common, the O/U design was introduced, and most modern sporting doubles are O/U designs.
The barrels of a gun made by the Krupp firm from Essen in the Ruhr valley are composed of "Fluss-stahl" or fluid steel, as opposed to laminated or twisted steel. This type of steel was considered the finest in the world at the time and was commonly used in shotguns produced in Belgium and pre-WWII Germany. Krupp also supplied bored barrels to various manufacturers.
Return Policy:
We gladly offer a 3 day unfired inspection policy from the time that the firearm is delivered to your FFL. Refunds are available for all qualifying orders.
