The venerable 4 bore cartridge is one of the largest shoulder fired calibers ever built. Designed for dangerous game hunting in British colonial Africa and India, the 4 bore launches a 1,750 grain projectile at around 1,350 feet per second, making it capable of imparting a massive amount of energy on target. This rifle shows a ramped blade front sight, front sling stud, and rear quarter rib with fixed notch sight. The barrel is marked "WM. CHRISTIAN FIREARMS LTD. NO. 4" ahead of the rib and "4 BORE" to the left ahead of the breech. The falling block action is unadorned and features a tang mounted safety switch. Beautifully figured, multi-point checkered forend and pistol grip stock with blued steel grip cap, shadowline cheekpiece, rear sling stud, and brown rubber Pachmayr Decelerator recoil pad. The rifle weighs in at 21 lbs. 9 oz.
