Verney-Carron .375 H&H Flanged Magnum "Azur" Double Rifle. A very petite scaled frame and a boxlock design with an extended top strap, nicely shaped H&H type bolstered frame, a massive under-bolt for triple lumps on the barrels, a manual safety, two triggers, and disk set strikers. The guard bow is rolled for the RH shooter and the tang extends to a point-skeleton grip cap. The receiver, furniture, and grip cap have a brushed "French" gray receiver and is engraved in a small, traditional English type scroll and rose bouquets with the Maker's name in flowing banners on each sideplate. 

The walnut stock has nice figure and an open pistol grip design, a traditionally shaped cheekpiece for the RH shooter, and a 14 1/2" LOP over a red rubber recoil pad. The forend has a semi-beavertail shape with a push-rod release.

The 23 1/2" barrels have a unique 3-lump design, automatic ejectors, and a quarter rib with 1 standing/2 folding leaf Express sights (50, 75, 100 yds). The standing sight is gold lined. The rib is also fitted with factory mounted swing mount with 1" rings. A matte finished Leupold VXIII 1.5-5x20mm with a Duplex reticle is mounted in the rings. 

The rifle weighs 9 lbs. scoped and 8 lbs. 2.6 oz. with open sights and is lively in the hands and fast handling. 

The rifle remains in excellent, virtually new condition overall showing little to no signs of use and is in its maker's leather case complete with original factory test target.
