Offered here is a classic W.W. Greener GP Gun single-shot shotgun chambered in 12 Gauge, manufactured by W.W. Greener of Birmingham, England. The GP ("General Purpose") Gun is one of the most recognizable Greener designs, utilizing the company's robust Martini-style falling block action that earned a reputation for strength, reliability, and simplicity.
Originally developed as a rugged utility and sporting shotgun, the GP Gun became popular throughout the British Empire and remains sought after today for its distinctive action, historical significance, and excellent build quality.
This example features a blued barrel paired with a color-toned receiver clearly marked "Greener's GP Gun" and "W.W. Greener Maker Birmingham England." The shotgun is fitted with attractive walnut furniture featuring traditional British-style checkering.
Proof marks visible on the barrel indicate a 2¾" chamber, making it compatible with modern standard 12-gauge 2¾" ammunition.
