Description:
Westley Richards Deeley & Edge 1883 Marked Single shot carbine for 500/450 1 1/2" Cartridge. This rifle is normally seen in the longer barreled rifle configuration with no engraving or chequering. I am not especially knowledgeable on this model and have not been able to find many sold in the past 20 years. The action is is silver and has been brushed at some point in the past, light, open scroll engraving is crisp to worn in some places and runs from the sides of the action to the guard and bottom of the action and onto the tang. The right side of the action is marked with "Deeley Edge Patent" and the left side is marked with "Manufactured by Westley Richards & Co. Londony & Birmingham. The top of the action shows a Birmingham proof and the number 210 and 1883. one of the tang screws is engraved and the other is a replacement that is ill fitting and not engraved. The action and trigger function well. The barrel is 22" with some marking in the lands and grooves, especially toward the breech, Henry's patent rifling, black powder proofs to 52 bore, full length solid rib with crosscut filing, marked "Carbine, 1 1/2" Case" 1 standing and 3 folded rear sight to 300 yds and a ladder rear sight, dovetailed front sight, a steel ramrod for clearing the chamber is in place along the underside of the barrel. The stocks are in fair condition and show no evidence of having ever been cracked or damaged. The chequering is heavily worn, standard screw type sling swivel in the rear, with a stock banded swivel in the fore end. 14 1/2" length of pull to a steel trap butt plate. This rifle would do with a cleanup and refinish and would turn into a spectacular example. Loaded ammo is included with this sale and the rifle was shot and regulated to the sights by Ken Owen. 02101 AHSS $3500.00
