Abstract: A carton for shipping and displaying a shotgun is disclosed. The carton is formed from a unitary blank of horizontally-extending, stock cover panels each having a hingedly-attached, vertically foldable panel which together divide the carton into separate front and rear compartments, one for snugly packaging the stock portion and the other receiving the barrel portion of the shotgun which are packaged as separate items. A V-shaped carton portion is foldably attached to one of the vertically foldable panels and is adapted to fit over the barrel and hold it stationary within the carton. An angular flap extends from one of the stock corner panels and is disposed to protect the edge of the V-shaped carton portions at one end thereof against damage by a barrel ring disposed in contact therewith.
