Product Description

For those with a passion for classic firearms, the Harrington & Richardson Model 088 is a single-shot shotgun that has stood the test of time. Manufactured by Harrington & Richardson (H&R), a company with a rich history dating back to 1871, this model is a testament to the brand's commitment to quality and functionality. The Model 088 is in fair condition, showing extensive signs of prior use and handling. Despite this, it maintains its overall functionality with a clean bore, some residue or smudges, and slight corrosion. The sale includes the shotgun itself, which remains operational with its action and trigger assembly intact.

This 12-gauge shotgun is a break-action model, a design known for its simplicity and reliability. With a capacity of one round, it's an ideal choice for those who value precision over volume. The shotgun features a 28" smoothbore barrel, providing a balance of power and accuracy. Finished in a blued coating, the Model 088 displays improved corrosion resistance along with a visually appealing sheen. It also boasts a smooth wood stock with a black butt plate, adding to its traditional aesthetic.

Notably, it includes a front brass bead sight to aid in target acquisition. The shotgun has a 3" chamber and a fixed full choke, suitable for a wide range of shooting scenarios. Manufactured in 1985, it's a piece of American history, with a moderate amount of pitting and surface rust, as well as multiple scratches and scuffs on the barrel. Despite these signs of wear, the Model 088 remains a reliable and functional firearm, underlining H&R's commitment to durability. With its blend of historical significance, functionality, and traditional design, the H&R Model 088 would make a worthy addition to any firearm collection or serve as a reliable tool for hunting or target practice.
