WESTLEY RICHARDS 8 BORE- 16 Lbs. 3 Oz.- EXHIBIT PIECE at PARIS WORLD'S FAIR in 1900- 26" FULLY RIFLED DAMASCUS Bbls.- EXC. BORES- CASED
Description:
#15946, Westley Richards, 170 New Bond St. London - 3 1/4" Case 12 Drams Spherical Ball 10 Drams Conical Bullet: A Massive 16 Lb. 3 Oz. Westley Toplever Centerfire Patent Ejector 8 Bore Rifle Finished in 1900 as an Exhibition Piece for the Paris World's Fair in 1900, The barrels are 26" Ejector Damascus fully rifled with 9 groove rifling with "C" Bolting" Dolls Head extension with a Third Bite, They both are initialed "F.L." which most likely was Fred Lilley, A swamped concave stippled and engraved rib with 2 folding engraved sights at 50 & 100 yards, The rib engraved "3 1/4" Case 12 Drams Spherical Ball 10 Drams Conical Bullet" which is special as the rifling pitch is such to handle both a round or conical bullet with the 12 dram or 10 dram load respectively, Top tang safety, Full length trigger guard tang to a steel engraved grip cap with a Bull Elephant engraved on the trigger guard bow, Extremely solid and sound wood with very nice color & contrast, Shadowline cheekpiece, Checkered side panels with carved teardrops, Sling eyes, Deeley & Edge forend release with a horn tip, John Deeley was the managing director of Westley from 1872 to 1899, He helped create the famous Anson & Deeley action, Great stock length at 15 1/8" LOP over a 7/8" Silvers pad, Great weight at 16 Lbs. 3 Oz., This is a full rifled set of barrels and the bores remain excellent and I would put the right bore at 90% and the left bore at 95-96% from the day they were rifled, All the screws are in very good to excellent shape and nearly everyone lays north & south, Original damascus pattern remains at 80%, The wood finish remains at 90%, The checkering remains at 97%, The whole is cased in an oak & leather brass cornered trunk with proper cleaning accessories. This is an interesting 8 bore with an Anson & Deeley toplever action with ejectors and certainly worthy as an exhibit gun at the Paris World's Fair in 1900. It comes with a very interesting and original Paris World's Fair catalog that is great reading of a bygone era.
