W. W. Greener's 

 CHOKE-BORE GUNS, 



Tried or? Game in America. 



Supplied by I!.' C. Squires, 1 Cortlandt St. ! 



NEW YORK. 



See trie Following Testimonials ? 



Sir— It is a pleasure for me to inf lm vou of my 

 high appreciation of the in-lb. Greener breech-load- 

 er purchased of you last winter. I consider choke- 

 boring, if skillfully done, as the greatest improve- 

 ment in fowling-pieces since the inlroduetlou of Ihe 

 percussion cap. It gives the maker complete con- 

 trol of the pattern, and greatlv increases penetra- 

 tion. To prove this, I will give you the performances 

 of this gun. The B-2-lnch 10-gaUge barrels, eharned 

 with 4y 2 drachms of powder and U 4 oz. No. (i Eng- 

 lish chilled shot, give patterns ranging from 285 to 

 330 pellets in Si -inch circle at 40 yards. The same 

 charge of powder and 114 oz. No. 4 American shot 

 gives I60 to 17.1 pattern, with penetration which kills 

 ducks at B-i to 7 yards like a siruke of lightning. It 

 is a characteristic of the choke-oore to show its 

 greatest superiority in the largo sized shot. What I 

 am about to say will perhaps suipriso you as much 

 as the performance surprised inc. On trial of the 

 12-gauge '2S-iuch modified choke-bore barrels, with 

 VA drachms of powder and 1 '„ oz, of shot, I got 

 about the same pattern and spread of shot at 25 

 yards as -with the full choice lo-gauge barrels at 40 

 yards, with tremendous ponetratioe. This is just the 

 performance required of a gun for thick cover, in 

 which you generally lind ruffed grouse, woodcock 

 and quail, these >nnl -being killed, with few excepj 

 nous, at from in to rJ5 yards. 



COL. JOHN BODINE. 



Dear Siu— The guns arrived all right. Wethink 

 these last guns yon have sent us will place the 

 Ureener guns ahead of any other in this country, as 

 guns of other makers don't compare in shooting 

 qua ities yvith them. We unhesitatingly recommend 

 the Greener as far superior to any gun of foreign or 

 domestic mauuiaci nre that we have seen. We say 

 this after seeing and using guns of all the most cele- 

 brated makers. CARLISLE, JONES & CO. 



Selma, Ala. 



The Greener gun presented by Mr. Squires for the 

 best pointer, and awarded to me, is a close, clean, 

 hard hitter, killing its game at very long distances. 

 It is the si eoiid Greener that f have owned and they 

 cannot be beaten. „ u win with them at the trap 

 or in the Held. S. B. D1LLEY. ,

Sir— 1 have a pair or W . W. Jreener s oreech- 

 loaders fhought of II. C. Squires, of New Y'ork), 

 modified choke-bore. I have had an opportunity to 

 test these weapons on biids heavily feathered, and 

 where great penetration was essential to success. I 

 have repeatedly made long shots, always killing the 

 game clean. At a target both guns made a very 

 even distribution of the shot, with extreme penetra- 

 tion ^. C. FIELD. 



Sib— The Greener breech-ioauer I purchased of 

 you is very fine indeed, ami gives great satisfaction.
