Introducing the Minerva, our external hammer side by side shotgun. Minerva, the Roman goddess of wisdom and the sponsor of arts and trade, is a fitting name for a gun that represents a part of gun making history. Before the rise of the hammerless shotgun in the late 19th century, hammer guns were a critical step in the evolution of the modern shotgun. Available in 20 and 28-gauge, the Minerva can be customized to your specifications and crafted into your own personal tribute to the history of gun making and the tradition of upland guns. Standard features include:
- Concave Rib
- Hand Engraving
- English Stock
- 2.5 grade wood
- Fixed Chokes
- Custom Stock Dimensions (some exceptions apply)
- Weight approx. 5.5 pounds
- Hard Case
