Sold $1200 shipped to your FFL, C&R OK. This is a copy of the Rhodesian Combat Shotgun. The originals were 12 gauge Browning A5's. This copy uses a Remington Model11 in 12 gauge which was a licensed copy of the Browning A5. This gun has a 10 shot magazine tube and custom extended forend. The finish is a custom proprietary Cerakote I call "Parkerized Gray" The Walnut stock has a rubber recoil pad. The gun comes with a 1947 era Nydar Holograpic sight that is in perfect working condition.
The Nydar Shotgun Sight gained fame in 1945 for its use on… well, shotguns. This was a remarkably simple contraption, converting Howard’s closed design into a more modern open reflex configuration. Attached to a strip of metal a few inches long, the sight consisted of a front glass roughly an inch and a half in diameter. Back at the rear of the mounting apparatus, a small prism and reticle sat open to the sun. With sufficient ambient light, the reticle would be reflected up onto the forward glass.
