AYA Centenary Round Action
The Centenary side-by-side sidelock by AYA stands as a distinguished testament to a century of gunmaking excellence (1915 – 2015), encapsulating the pinnacle of craftsmanship and heritage.
Crafted from the finest quality walnut, each piece is adorned with unique engraving and delicate gold inlay, elevating it to a level of unmatched artistry and refinement.
Mechanically, it embodies the essence of precision, with a forged steel action featuring a double locking mechanism and thoughtfully integrated gas vents. Hardened steel intercepting safety sears, gold-lined cocking indicators, and a hinged front trigger add to its functional finesse.
The chopper lump steel barrels and concave rib further underscore the gun’s meticulous design. The option of a selective or non-selective single trigger is available.
The stock, handcrafted from exquisite walnut, bears a finely chequered oil finish, offering both visual allure and a comfortable grip. For connoisseurs of fine wood, the Centenary model is available in an exhibition-grade variant.
The shotgun boasts a custom Centenary engraving, embellished with gold inlays, adding an extra layer of exclusivity to this commemorative piece. An initial oval allows personalisation.
Available in 12, 16, 20, 28, and .410 bores, with 28″ barrels as standard (and the option to customise barrel lengths), it caters to a diverse range of preferences. Weighing in at approximately 6 3/4 lbs in the 12 bore version. The Centenary Side by Side is more than a shotgun; it’s a heritage piece, an embodiment of a century of masterful gunmaking.
