Rare W.W. Greener EG Mark III 14-Bore Shotgun
Step into a unique chapter of British firearms history with this W.W. Greener EG Mark III "Police Gun." Originally commissioned in the 1920s and 30s for the Egyptian Gafir (village watchmen) and other colonial police forces, this isn’t just a shotgun—it is a marvel of early security engineering.
The Mark III is famous for its "trident" striker system. Designed to prevent stolen weapons from being used against the authorities, the action features a three-pronged firing pin that requires a proprietary bottlenecked 14-bore cartridge with a special annular groove. Standard shells simply will not fire, making this a true "dedicated" service weapon.
Built on the legendary Martini falling-block action, this device is renowned for its near-indestructible ruggedness. With its full-length military-style walnut stock, steel nose-cap, and distinctive profile, it serves as a powerful visual link to the era of the British Empire. Whether you are a fan of Martini-Henry actions or a collector of specialized service arms, the Greener Mark III offers a blend of mechanical ingenuity and historical gravitas that commands attention in any display.
