The Sidelock

The Sidelock shotgun has been developed using state-of-the-art manufacturing methods whilst keeping a strong sense of tradition throughout the weapon. Following on from the success of both the standard Boxlock and sideplated version the Sidelock is the next installment in the Boxall and Edmiston range (launched July 2011).
