Longthorne 'Belmont' Model 1001

The Longthorne ‘Belmont’ Model 1001 over-and-under shotgun embodies refined craftsmanship and functionality without compromising elegance.

This model is offered in various gauges—12, 16, 20, and 28—and is also available as multi-barrel sets upon request.

With a 3” chamber and proofed for High-Performance Steel up to full choke (with fixed chokes or ½ choke if equipped with multi-chokes), the ‘Belmont’ offers barrel lengths of 28”, 30”, or 32”.

Its true sidelock action is intricately engraved with a minimal scroll design, showcasing exquisite detailing. The standard forend, featuring an underlever release catch, complements this elegant scroll design, offering options for various forend wood styles, including rounded, slim rounded, beavertail, or semi-beavertail.

Further enhancing its aesthetics, the standard beaded trigger guard, approximately 80mm in tail length, is also engraved with the minimal scroll design, providing an elegant touch. The standard top lever matches the sophisticated pattern, maintaining uniformity in design.

Equipped with a game rib and a made-to-measure stock, the ‘Belmont’ model accommodates straight hand, semi-pistol grip, pistol grip, or Prince of Wales configurations, with the option for a true left-handed variant. Crafted from top-grade walnut and featuring a checkered heel.

This shotgun is delivered in an English Malton leather gun slip, reflecting its exquisite craftsmanship. The ‘Belmont’ Model 1001 is proudly 100% English-made, manufactured in Longthorne’s Northampton factory. Employing patented barrel technology, the shotgun boasts one-piece steel construction without soldered joints, delivering reduced recoil, minimised muzzle flip, and a low-profile action for an unparalleled shooting experience.
