Holland and Holland Royal 20ga (3-600644)

A magnificent expression of traditional English gunmaking, this Holland & Holland Royal 20 Gauge combines elegant proportions, exceptional walnut and the refined handling characteristics expected of a best-quality London side-by-side. Chambered for 3-inch shells and weighing only 6.05 pounds, it offers a graceful, responsive feel suited to the discerning upland sportsman or collector.

The classic English straight-hand stock is fashioned from striking exhibition-grade walnut, displaying deep color, bold figure and rich contrast throughout the buttstock and splinter-style forend. Fine checkering provides a secure purchase while preserving the gun’s sleek profile, and the traditional checkered wood butt completes its distinctly British appearance. Stock dimensions include a 14 3/8-inch length of pull, 1 3/8-inch drop at comb and 2 1/4-inch drop at heel, creating balanced proportions for instinctive mounting and smooth handling.

At the heart of the gun is Holland & Holland’s beautifully appointed Royal action, presented with a vivid case-colored finish that complements the warmth and character of the walnut. Delicate ornamental engraving extends across the lockplates and action body, lending visual depth without overwhelming the gun’s elegant lines. The long, dark-finished double barrels, sculpted action and graceful stock flow together to create a remarkably refined profile.

Traditional double triggers provide immediate, independent selection of the barrels. The Modified and Improved Cylinder chokes offer a versatile combination: the more open Improved Cylinder barrel is well suited to close and quickly presented targets, while the Modified barrel provides additional pattern density as range increases. Its 3-inch chambers add flexibility in ammunition selection while preserving the light, lively qualities prized in a fine 20-gauge game gun.

A fitted mahogany wood case accompanies the shotgun, providing an appropriately distinguished presentation and secure storage solution. Whether acquired as an elegant field companion, the centerpiece of a fine sporting collection or an exceptional example of London craftsmanship, this Holland & Holland Royal possesses enduring appeal.
