Totally relate to the above meme. [emoji23]

I believe it is a standard length. A magnum action would be quite rare in a 375 of that vintage. Really, they are pretty rare on a 375 Holland & Holland rifle of any vintage.

Yes. This is correct and what I have seen a well. You can make a 1” scope work by shimming but it is not ideal.

Looks like a classic Holland take apart (barreled receiver comes out of the stock) to me. The matching TD case is a nice touch. The scope may not be super useful as it may not be an actual 1” tube making the scope mounts less valuable. I had one like this and the scope was a little larger than...

This is a great little Rigby rifle for someone that wants an original prewar that they can hunt with and use but not have to worry about. Good luck with the sale.

This rifle has now safely been delivered. Congrats to its new caretaker. Thank you all for looking and for the commentary.

Thank you all for the kind comments and other fine rifle pictures. This rifle is SOLD PENDING FUNDS.

Sorry for the weird emojis above. Evidently they don't translate directly from an iPhone emojis. It was supposed to be a "smiley face" :LOL:

Bump for the weekend. Does someone out there need an amazing pre-WWI Holland & Holland 375? [emoji16]

Your Hollis is truly special. Beautiful rifle with excellent pedigree and provenance. Looks like it is a sweet shooter too!

I agree that the prewar Hollands were a finished a little nicer than than prewar Rigby’s overall. This particular Holland is finished at a bit higher level than most with the horn forend tip and little touches like engraved screw heads. These features were not common. I believe that most (if not...

Thank you for all the comments. This one is a truly special rifle. Hard to let it go but it is time for it to go to a new caretaker. Please send me a PM with any questions if I can help.

Good question. This uses Holland's most prominent style of takedown system. Some call it a take-apart. 1. It has a large captive screw in front of the magazine in the bottom metal that can be loosened with something like a coin or screw driver. 2. Then the barreled action tilts out of the stock...

Up for sale is a very rare and early “Best Quality” .375 Holland & Holland barreled action takedown Mauser rifle. This rifle is very rare in that it is a Pre-WWI (circa 1913-1914) Holland & Holland rifle built on a Magnum Square Bridge Action. The .375 H&H Magnum was invented in 1912 making this...

Does anyone have a spare hard copy of this magazine they would be willing to sell? I have been trying to find one for awhile. Thanks!

What a super cool offer for ammo collectors. Or, aspiring ammo collectors. Would be very tough (and expensive) to put a grouping like this together. What a way to jump start a collection.

Bummer. That was my dream varmint rifle when I was a kid. Thanks for protecting us from crappy scammers.

Nice! [emoji4]

Great deal for both seller and buyer on an excellent rifle. I have this same rifle that I customized some. I have taken it to Alaska twice and have the utmost confidence in it. Excellent rifle in the perfect for Alaska big game.

Nice offering on hard to find components. GLWS

Shotgun is SPF. Thank you!

I would also guess that the stock may have been refinished but the shotgun is in very nice condition overall and I don’t think it has been shot much. Also, the chambers appear to be 2-3/4” factory and have not been lengthened. A 2-3/4” shell falls right into place without issue. From my...

Thank you for the kinds words gentlemen. Shoot me a PM if interested. Reasonable offers will be considered. :)

These Jeffery rifles are beautiful. I am glad to see them being built true to the lines of the original prewar rifles including engraving patterns. The engraving on the 500 above looks very similar to my original one which I love. Kudos! I am very sorry that I missed them at the G&H booth at...

BTT. Reduced to $2200 plus shipping

Thank you.

Reviving an old thread here but I was wondering if anyone has the original article listed archived somewhere or in PDF? I enjoyed reading it a few years ago and wanted to read again but the link is broken now. Thank you.

Another beautiful rifle. It is indeed a dance to find and land these special rifles but very “worth it”. I am with you 100%

What a special rifle! She is beautiful and has excellent history and provenance. Mr Talbot seems to have been a very interesting man. What a treasure

I continue to be very sad to see these threads. Dennis has had a lot of challenges in the last several years that certainly exacerbated what was already minimal communication and customer service. I found him to be generally pleasant to talk with when I could get him to answer or reply. He...

BTT. Reasonable offers will be considered. Surely someone needs a very nice vintage 12 bore for Christmas this year. :)

This is a really cool rifle and a great video. Love the nostalgia. As others have said, I feel like the provenance connection to DFH is a little weak. Still super cool and may very well be DFH’s rifle as stated.

That’s a good offer. Especially on Into the Thorns. That one is tough to find. Congrats

Sorry. Didn’t see the replies above for some reason before posting. Nice score

I will take these. PM inbound

Well, that’s something you don’t see everyday. What caliber?

Those are beautiful.

SPF to Green Chile :giggle: Thank you all!

This is a Prewar John Rigby & Co .275 Rigby from circa 1929. It has a 22” barrel with ramp beaded front sight with two folding leaf express rear sights with leaves for 100 and 200 yards as well as a cocking piece mounted peep sight. It features a standard Mauser flag safety with “SAFE” inlaid in...

Oh my! That is just gorgeous. I also love the background and accoutrements. Just beautiful

BTW. I believe that rifle was likely engraved by the incomparable Harry Kell. Very nice

Beautiful rifle. Hearty Congrats on a great purchase. I have a friend that I believe will have what you need. I will make him aware of this thread. Good luck to you.

These are both real gems to find, own and shoot/hunt with. Good luck in your search. [emoji3]

I am mostly looking for modern shootable 425 Westley Richards ammo rather than vintage collectible stuff right now. I would also like to find reloading components (dies, brass, bullets). Thank you.

BTT. Price is now $2500 plus shipping and insurance. Thanks

Very nice trophies that your father collected. I did not see the leopard and elephant in the auction. Did they remove them?

Cool rifle and interesting. Is it an extractor or ejector gun? I would guess extractor but can’t tell for sure from the pics. Thanks.
