The Dickinson Estate 20 gauge 28-inch side-by-side is a box-lock double with double triggers and a receiver in true bone-charcoal case hardening (Dickinson part no. 202H). A 20 gauge double is the classic choice for walking up quail, grouse and pheasant, light enough to carry all day yet with enough shot charge for clean kills at upland ranges. Dickinson fits this one with a premier grade Turkish walnut stock, grade 2, shaped in the English style and finished with hand-rubbed oil. The receiver wears English scroll engraving over about a quarter of its surface, and fine hand checkering at 24 lines per inch covers the grip and fore-end. Thin-wall choke tubes and automatic ejectors round out a gun that feels as good in the hand as it looks.
