A Traditional Westley Richards .500 Double Rifle
Last week saw another of our signature 'droplock' double rifles finished from engraving. In this case we have a classic .500 3" nitro express with our traditional full scroll coverage, gold naming and an elegant gold border around the breach ends with scroll pyramids extending forward. This particular rifle has an extended tang or 'strap over comb' which can often be a nice touch. This rifle is going for full case colour hardening of all parts, which should make for a very nice looking version of a traditional format rifle.

I am really pleased to see that you are still producing rifles with what I consider to be English engraving, as opposed to the heavy bling type engraving, it would be a pleasure to see this when it comes back from the St Ledgers, the perfect double !
