Longthorne 'Blenheim' Model 1006

The Longthorne ‘Blenheim’ Model 1006 over-and-under shotgun epitomises elegance, precision, and refined craftsmanship.

Available in multiple gauges—12, 16, 20, and 28—with an option for multi-barrel sets, this shotgun ensures versatility to cater to individual preferences.

Chambered for 3” cartridges and proofed for ‘High-Performance Steel’ up to full choke (using fixed chokes or ½ choke with multi-chokes), the ‘Blenheim’ boasts barrel lengths of 28”, 30”, or 32”, all beautifully adorned with ‘Renaissance’ style engraving.

Its true sidelock action is intricately engraved with a stunning ‘Renaissance’ design, featuring pin-less sidelocks adorned with gold inlayed game birds and flowers.

The extended forend metalwork incorporates an underlever release catch, also adorned with the ‘Renaissance’ design, offering options for various forend wood styles such as rounded, slim rounded, beavertail, or semi-beavertail.

Adding to its allure, the extended full-length beaded trigger guard features intricate ‘Renaissance’ engraving and a gold-plated trigger, while the pierced top lever is elegantly adorned in the ‘Renaissance’ style.

A game rib and a stock tailored to fit individual measurements, accommodating semi-pistol grip or pistol grip preferences, along with left or right-handed orientations, complete the exquisite ensemble. Crafted from exhibition-grade walnut, the stock is fitted with a horn pad and features a ‘Renaissance’ engraved skeleton metal framework, personalised with optional silver stock oval initials.

The ‘Blenheim’ Model 1006 is accompanied by a Malton bridle leather gun slip, offering a touch of sophistication. Proudly crafted entirely in Longthorne’s Northampton factory, this shotgun boasts patented barrel technology with seamless, one-piece steel construction, proofed for steel and delivering low recoil, reduced muzzle flip, and a low-profile action for a superior shooting experience.
