Bryant Ridge's Analysis:
The Weatherby Olympian over/under shotgun is a rare and beautifully crafted piece of firearms history that seamlessly blends classic American styling with precision Japanese engineering. Manufactured by Nikko Kodensha during a brief production run from 1977 to 1981, this premium box-lock shotgun features an incredibly early production serial number, making it an exceptional collector's example. Its deeply blued receiver is decorated with delicate scroll engraving, complemented by a high-gloss walnut stock featuring finger-groove forearm accents, fine checkering, and Weatherby's signature rosewood-capped pistol grip. Outfitted with dual ventilated rib barrels, automatic ejectors, and a single selective trigger, the Olympian balances nimble, pointable handling with a robust lockup. It stands out today as a highly sought-after, sophisticated workhorse that represents a golden era of high-end field and clay-shooting collaboration.
