Vintage Firearms Inc is pleased to offer this clean, delightful, affordable upland gun from AyA, one of Spain’s premier gunmakers well known the world over for making solid, well finished guns. From the AyA website: The N° 4 has been AYA’s standard boxlock design since 1960. It is modelled on a Westley Richards boxlock action, brought to Spain by the King brothers. The Anson & Deeley action, the most famous of all boxlock designs, was created by two employees of Westley Richards in 1875, and ever since, Westley Richards guns have defined boxlock elegance. This fine upland gun is an AyA Model 4 built circa 1980, it is serial numbered 514203. Weighing well under six pounds at 5lbs. 13oz. this handy side-by-side is balanced just ahead of the hinge pin. The 27″ barrels are of the chopper lump design, long heralded as the very best method of joining the barrels and utilized mostly in “BEST GUNS” from the likes of Purdey and Holland & Holland. The barrels are tight on the hinge and face, have mirror bores, tight ribs, 98% factory blue, and are choked Mod and Full. The barrels are complete with well-timed ejectors, and extended cones by VFI, extended cones soften recoil, improve the shot pattern and prolong the life of the guns mechanicals. The receiver case color has faded to a pleasing silver finish with some areas of case color remaining, it has hand chiseled borders and light scroll around the pins and screws and is in perfect mechanical condition with crisp double triggers, auto safety and excellent screws, the lever is Way Right of Center. The European Walnut has light figure and hand cut flat top checkering and a checkered butt, there are some field marks. These side-by-sides are known to be highly reliable guns, and this one is nice and light and a joy to handle. This AyA Model 4 is priced affordably, for a hand-engraved, hand-checkered gun-what’s not to like? Ideal for the upcoming upland and clays season. Thanks for looking! |
