An absolute treat for the New Year! These rifles are from the Golden Age of Double Rifles, the attention to detail and workmanship cannot really be approached by todays manufacturers, so we will never see the likes of these again. Very many thanks for showing us these gems. Having never been a fan of rimless cartridges in doubles given the complexity of the extractor that one I would pass on, but the others are wonderful. Happy New Year to you! Chris B.
-`I found a ww greener 577 nitro with mint bores for 6500 . I haven't bought it yet . I am trying to do everything I can to make the money before it is sold . The reason for mint bores is do to the fact it only weighs 10 pounds
Beautiful rifles! Just to add a little info. The first two forend releases you showed are called Anson rod releases, the next is a Deeley latch and the last was a Rigby lever release. Anson and Deeley designed the action together for WR, but had separate patents for their forend release designs.
I had a Jeffrey double in the same calibre, beautifully balanced & pleasant to fire . Boy ! I regret selling than firearm. Very well informed episode, l enjoyed watching.
Ongelooflike versameling! Weereens jou video baie geniet! Baie spesiale wapens uit die verlede. My gunstelinge verseker die Wilkinson en Westley Richards.
