The walnut is sound, though not particularly fancy. Model designations bore number grading and this 200E sports a remarkably upmarket specification as a single selective trigger ejector gun. These included over-and-unders, semi-autos and the somewhat less common side-by-side. In the 1960s, to extend its range, it marketed a range of shotguns manufactured by SKB Arms Company based in Tokyo, which also had Browning and Weatherby on its books at different times.
In the inter-war period, BSA made its own range of highly regarded side-by-sides, but the factory was badly damaged during World War II. Sadly, production of double-barrelled guns never resumed post-war, instead BSA concentrated on rifles and single-barrel shotguns. In this instance, the phrase “made in Japan to BSA specification” has a ring to it that has echoed down through the years until such practice has become almost commonplace. The idea of a famous sporting arms maker subcontracting production to an overseas manufacturer is not new.
