Original British 13 Bore Double Barrel Percussion Shotgun by George Hollins with Laminated Steel Barrels - Circa 1860 Books & Films The interior tailor’s label identifiesOriginal Item: Only One Available. This is a British made Double Barreled Percussion shotgun, almost certainly intended for the large U. S. import market. It is marked on both lock plates with GEORGE HOLLINS, who we have not been able to identify as either a British maker or U. S. Importer. There is some lovely acanthus leaf foliate engraving on the locks and other fittings, and the stock has some lovely checkering on the wrist and forestock area,
