TKe Fiaest Greeiver G\in Ever B\iilt. 
Who Wants To Own This Magnificent Gun? 
Awarded The Grand Prize at St. Louis. 
Among the many fine Greener guns shown at the World's Fair at St. Louis, 
was one of superlative merit and beauty, and which Mr. Greener says is the finest 
gun he ever made. 
This gun is now in New York, and is oft'ered for sale as the most unique speci- 
men of the gunmaker's art that has yet been produced. The price is $1,400 net; and 
if cash accompanies the order we will include a best quality English solid pigskin case 
lined with silk velvet, and a full set of nickel-silver implements. 
An adequate description of the gun itself is impossible in cold type, for the sym- 
metry of proportion, the balance, the studied elegance of design and the exquisite 
workmanship must be seen to be appreciated. 
Mr. Greener's best goldsmith worked over six months on the hand carving and 
gold work alone, which will give an idea of the value of the ornamentation. 
The entire metal work cf the action is carved in high relief and embellished with 
the most beautiful gold embossing, there being no less than 26 encrusted figures on the 
action and guard, of cupids, dogs, woodcock, quail, pheasants, ducks, , etc., in pure 
24-carat gold, and more than 40 inlaid letters and figures on the barrels and fore-end, 
of ducks, dogs, pigeons and stags, all in pure gold, two oi the stags being beautifully 
-wrought into the Whitworth fluid steel barrels, each figure measuring over an inch 
and a half long. 
Every other feature of the gun has received the same care as the ornamentation. 
It makes an even full-choked pattern of 260 with the right barrel and 267 with the 
left in a 30-inch circle at 40 yards with No. 6 Newcastle chiller! ^70 pellets to the 
ounce. 
It has 30-inch barrels, w eighs 7 pounds 9^ ounces, small half-pistol grip, drop . 
of stock at heel 2 inches, at coinb ij/ inches, length of stock 14 J4 inches, including! 
Silver's recoil pad. 
The rib is flat, level and file cut by hand, making a dead finish. The ejector 
mechanism is Greener's new ''Unique" system, the very latest product of Mr. Greener's 
inventive genius. In this system the limb in the ejector lock does double duty in firing 
the case and ejecting the shell. It also takes the blow or strain, usually received on 
the action, from the weight of the falling barrels on opening the gun. This one fea- 
ture alone will obviously lengthen the life of the action indefinitely. 
All the interior of the locks are gold-plated to prevent corrosion. It is in truth 
a perfect gun, and yet withal a work of art. At least half its value is. in its artistic 
ornamentation. 
Comparatively few can appreciate the worth of the very best in anything, yet 
comparatively many in America demand the best that skill can produce. 
We offer this gun at $1,400 net to either the connoisseur or the dilettante in gun 
matters, believing in either case the purchaser will secure to himself that which he 
will prefer to his money. 
Greener guns are good guns, and their use is a fine habit.
