Engraved Westley Richards Box Lock Double Rifle in 375 Win Caliber

Blue barrels with a blade front sight and an express 3 leaf rear sight on a solid matte rib with doll's head extension. The top of the right barrel at the breech is marked "WESTLEY RICHARDS & CO. ENGLAND" and ".375 WIN REGULATED FOR 250 GRN BULLET" on the left side. The action is engraved with fine English scroll work with "WESTLEY RICHARDS" in a banner on each side. The top of the action directly ahead of the break lever is marked "WESTLEY RICHARDS/PATENT EJECTOR". The engraving pattern extends to the break lever and forearm hardware. The trigger guard is engraved with an elephant and there is a lion on the underside of the action. The water table is marked with British proof marks and "DEELEY'S PATENT/EJECTOR A987" on the right side and "PATENT 21346/95" on the left side. The matching serial number is marked on the underside of each barrel. Blue barrels, break lever, trigger guard and underside action plate and casehardened remaining parts, single trigger, tang mounted safety and mounted with a multi-point checkered walnut splinter forearm with horn forend and pistol grip stock with a metal grip cap, cheek piece, solid Old English recoil pad, sling eye, inset five point star on the right side and silver initial oval. Length of pull is 14 1/4 inches, drop at the comb is 1 3/4 inches and drop at the heel is 2 3/8 inches.

ConditionVery good as refurbished. The sleeved barrels retain 95% blue finish with a ding and finish loss on the muzzle end of the left barrel, a couple of minor gouges on the underside in the same area and some scattered minor spotting. The action and forearm hardware have a smooth gray patina. The wood is good overall with a large crudely repaired break on the toe which extends to the sling eye. Otherwise there are some scattered minor dents and dings, and distinct checkering. The markings are clear. Mechanically very good.
