Dobson and Rosson, a distinguished British gunmaking firm founded in the late 19th century, gained acclaim for their finely crafted shotguns. Operating out of London, they became known for their high-quality, bespoke firearms, blending traditional craftsmanship with innovative design. Their shotguns were celebrated for both their performance and elegance. Despite their prominence in the early 20th century, the company eventually faded from the spotlight, leaving behind a legacy of expertly made firearms.

Overall very good estate condition, bores are shiny, barrels are resleeved and marked as such with minor surface scratches and finish wear.
