EJECTOR GUN. 



Safety ! Strengtli ! 

 Symmetry! 



This gun has been proved of unequalled safety. R. Rochford-Boyd, Esq., writing to the London Field, of Nov. 7, 1885. says: "With reference to the safety of hammerless guns*I agree with yon that a 

 safety bolt to be of any value ought to be reliable, and to illustrate my meaning, the following may interest your readers: Wben grouse drivmg on the Berwyn Mountains, in Mo° go°ierysbire, some ten da^^^ 

 since, and using a Greener ejecting gun, with safety bolt, the rain commenced descending in torrents, and, as a fog seemed imminent, the or^^er was given for home Instead of following the downward track 

 adopted by the keepers and beaters, I decided on a shorter Une of country, and decided to make my way along the face of a steep hiU. scantily covered^th f em Placing my gun, which was loaded , at safe, I 

 made the attempt, "and got on fairly well for a hundred yards, when I suddenly slipped and began rapidly to descend. After gomg some forty feet, and finding the pace mcreasmg, I was forced to let my gun 

 supping and swinging round, presenting its stock and muzzle alternately at my head, it shot rapidly down the hill and disappeared over a chfl, toward which I unwillmgly followed. My sensation at t,hat moment 

 I keep to myself. Luckily some friendly ferns checked my pace, and I brought up a few yards from the edge. Regaining my feex, I cautiously proceeded tdl I got on a sheep track, and succeeded by the aid of 

 a bouW in gaining such a foothold as to enable me to approach the edge and attract the attention of the men then hundreds of feet below me. Indicating that I.had lost my gun, one of them with gr^at d^iffl- 

 culty climbed up the face of the hill, and after some time uttered a shout. Then, far .below me and embedded half way up the barrels, with the stock sticking straight up, I perceived the gun A mo^ avrms 

 between two rocks had received it In its fall; a couple of yards to the right or left, and it would have been smashed to atoms. Twenty minutes later it was restored to me. the barrels plugged up for some inches, 

 but apparently having received no external injury, save a few scratches, and a piece chipped off the heel plate. The trigger guard was, however, a study; bits of fern and rushes were twisted round the triggers , 

 wMc™ i^ht in evefything in the downward course; but the safety bolt had done Its work, and the cartridge were intact. While I write there hangs above me an old and valued fejjf^t' ^ J^^eenw ^ 

 rebounding locks. Nearly 100,000 shots have been fired out of that gun; had it, however, been with me on the hills that day. a dififerent sequel might have been told. I always cons dered hammer 

 bounding locks required care, not only in crossing fences and in covert, and from the liability to explode when dropped, hut frotn the tendency of the hammers to catch in bu tonholes and watch chains as has 

 frequently happened to me. Sportsmen have every reason to be thankful that science lias inventecf such a boon as hammerless guns with reliable safetj; bolts-m my opinion the safest ^nd pleasantest guns an^^ 

 one can desire-provided gentlemen recognize the fact that a cheap gun on that principle is one of the most dangerous thmgs out, and, when they decide to go in for a hammerless gun, select a first-class gun 

 maker for the purpose."
