This massive single barrel stopping rifle would be a match for any animal on the planet with its ludicrously large 2 bore chambering. The 2 bore was a huge cartridge developed in the days of black powder for quickly dispatching, say, an angry elephant or cape buffalo. The loading for these cartridges varies, but sources indicate that it may have been as large as a 3,500 grain projectile over 700 grains of powder propelling it to nearly 1,500 feet per second, giving it a total of, a truly staggering, 17,500 foot pounds of energy! The falling bock action is blued and marked "W.M. Christian/Firearms LTD/Trinidad, CO/2 Bore/No.2". William Christian Firearms was in business from circa 1990 to 2000. It features a tang mounted safety switch. Has a ramped white beaded blade front sight, front sling stud, and a matted rear quarter rib with an unnotched fixed sight. Beautifully figured, multi-point checkered forend and pistol grip stock with blued steel buttplate, shadowline cheekpiece, rear sling stud, and rubber recoil pad. The rifle weighs in at a whopping 25 lbs. The included BATF letter exempts this rifle from the provisions of the NFA due to this firearm being designed for sporting purposes despite its large caliber.

Excellent overall, retaining 97% original blue finish. The markings are cut through the finish with a scratch on the left of the action, minor handling evidence, a few blemishes in the wood, and sharp checkering on the stock and forend. Mechanically excellent.
