What’s Included
- Félix Sarasqueta No. 1 .410 Bore side-by-side shotgun
The No. 1 series pairs a side-by-side boxlock with double underlugs and sculpted fences for a solid, traditional build. A top-lever break action and a non-selective single-piece extractor (no ejectors) keep operation straightforward and familiar. Capacity is two rounds, with 26" barrels chambered for 3" .410 shells.
Finish and details include a color case-hardened receiver and blued barrels, complemented by a solid matted top rib and a brass front bead. The receiver and furniture wear factory-applied ornamental engraving in floral and geometric patterns with a small game-bird motif and tasteful borders.
Stocking is classic walnut with a semi-pistol grip, hand-cut checkering, a grip-oval escutcheon, and a splinter forend with matching checkering. The butt is fitted with a black hard-rubber plate and white-line spacer, and the length of pull measures 14.5". Controls include double triggers and a manual tang safety.
