AN ANTIQUE 7MM CENTREFIRE WALKING STICK SHOTGUN IN WORKING ORDER, its handle is made from a deer's antler and the barrel is painted brown with its upper section representing a bamboo cane, it comes with its original tampon, unlike the standard walking stick shotgun this differs in how it operates, pulling the top section of the cane backwards causes it to twist revealing the breech, allowing entry of a cartridge and when twisted back to the closed position it remains uncocked, when the user decided to use it, the small round button visible on the top face of it handle was pulled out, affording both a half and full cock position, once in the full cock position its firing pin was released by the small bolt situated in the slot in the handle when closed, this is defined as an antique under the Antique Arms Regulations of 2021 and free from licensing restrictions whilst retained as an ornament or curio.
