Description

There's something about a classic English-style side by side that a pump or autoloader just can't replicate, and the Dickinson Estate in 20 gauge captures that feel without the vintage price tag. Built in Turkey with modern CNC machining and finished the old-fashioned way, this break action double pairs 28 inch barrels with 3 inch chambers, giving you the reach and swing for upland birds while keeping the whole package light and lively between the hands.

A Case Hardened Receiver Done the Traditional Way

Plenty of budget doubles fake the look with chemical finishes, but the Estate's trigger plate receiver gets true bone-charcoal case hardening, the same slow process used on fine doubles for over a century. It's dressed up with English scroll engraving covering roughly a quarter of the metal, and the internals are cleanly polished steel. Underneath the good looks you get automatic ejectors that kick spent hulls clear for quick reloads, a manual safety, and a simple brass bead up front that stays out of your way when a bird flushes.

English Stock, Premier Grade Turkish Walnut

The straight English-style grip is the heart of this gun's handling. It encourages a smooth, instinctive mount and keeps weight centered, which is exactly what you want when a grouse or quail breaks cover at ten yards. Dickinson uses premier grade Turkish walnut with fine hand-cut checkering at 24 lines per inch, so it looks and feels like a gun costing considerably more.

Why the Dickinson Estate 20 Gauge Earns Its Spot

At roughly six and a half pounds, this is a gun you can carry all day through thick cover without regretting it by lunchtime. The 20 gauge chambering handles everything from light 2 3/4 inch target loads for clays to 3 inch field loads for pheasant. Whether it's your first double gun or an addition to a growing collection, the Estate delivers the classic side by side experience with build quality that holds up season after season.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can the Dickinson Estate 20 gauge shoot both 2 3/4 inch and 3 inch shells?

Yes. The Estate has 3 inch chambers, which means it safely handles both 2 3/4 inch and 3 inch 20 gauge shells. That gives you the flexibility to run light target loads on the clays course and step up to heavier field loads when bird season rolls around.

Is the case hardening on the receiver real or just a cosmetic finish?

It's the real deal. Dickinson uses true bone-charcoal case hardening on the Estate's trigger plate receiver, the same traditional process found on classic fine doubles. That produces the genuine mottled coloring you see on the metal, along with a hardened surface, rather than an imitation chemical finish.

Does the Dickinson Estate have ejectors or just extractors?

The Estate series comes with automatic ejectors, which is a nice touch at this level. When you break the action open, fired hulls are kicked clear of the chambers so you can reload quickly, while unfired shells are simply lifted for easy removal by hand.

What is the English-style stock and why would I want one?

An English-style stock has a straight grip instead of a pistol grip, which is the traditional configuration on classic game guns. It promotes a fast, natural mount and quick handling on flushing birds, and it trims a bit of weight. Combined with the 28 inch barrels, it makes this a smooth-swinging upland gun that carries easily all day.
