Affordable Smallbore Westley Richards Take-Down Rifle

[rookhawk]

This lovely gun looks like a martini….but it’s not! It’s a miniature action built by Westley Richards in take down design. Chambered for the relatively powerful 300 Sherwood, a longer and stronger follower to 310 Cadet. Includes new brass. Brass and dies are easy to find and it’s easy to make your own brass from several pedestrian calibers if you prefer.

Nice adult full length stock. Steel butt plate. Good wood. Rear aperture sight needs to be better affixed. Metford rifled bore needs a good cleaning. (Happy to walk the buyer through the process)

$3800 and free shipping via FedEx to your FFL in the lower 48 States!

A rare gun at a reasonable price in a caliber that you can shoot. Perfect for varmints, predators, tiny 10, and range use.

Ahh, those are very nice. I've been looking for one off and on for years and I love the little rook rifles. Alas, I just bought another double but it's great to see one for sale.

Price reduced so I can get this shipped to your FFL rather than leaving it in storage for another year: $3600 and free shipping.

What a nice little rook rifle. You are correct it would be an outstanding varmint and tiny 10 gun.

Miniature version of “ Independent Fire “

Man I must find a MH of some type , a sporter maybe perhaps .

We’ll bump it down to $3300 free shipping. It’s a helluva gun for that money, and a takedown, and in the most practical of the small bore cartridges they ever made. (The one with the most power)

Some cast them from molds. Others use slightly lighter bullets intended for carcanos
