Description
This Zabala Hermanos Model 202 is a side-by-side break-action shotgun chambered for 20 gauge with 3 inch chambers, specifically manufactured for the Richland Arms Co. of Blissfield, Michigan. The 28 inch blued barrels feature a matted top rib, a brass bead front sight, and are fixed with a full choke. The boxlock action is finished in a bright coin finish and is decorated with extensive floral and scroll engraving. Technical specifications include dual triggers and a tang-mounted slide safety. The shotgun is stocked in a checkered hardwood featuring a pistol grip, a cheekpiece on the left side, and a black plastic buttplate embossed with the Richland Arms Co. dog head logo. The matching checkered forend is of the splinter type. Key markings on the barrels include Zabala Hermanos S R.C., Made For Richland Arms Co., and Made In Spain. The barrel flats and water table are marked with the ZH maker’s mark within a shield and the serial number 64769. Proof marks on the barrel flats include 20-76 for the gauge and 76mm chamber length, 1000Kgs proof pressure, and various Spanish Eibar proof house marks including a helmet over a shield and a shield with a cross.
