[Rare Breed]

Congratulations Toby…I mean Rare Breed.

And a hearty congratulations to the buyer. Enjoy the beautiful DR in good health!!

I deserved the Toby part lol!!!

 

[Rare Breed]

Congrats! Did it go to someone from AH?

It did!!!

@Rare Breed is a true gentleman of the highest order! Truly a rare breed in this day and age. Admittedly true gentlemen are much more common here than everyday society.

I will admit to being the party who took advantage of this deal.
I wanted to put my greasy mitts on that fine rifle before I committed to buy.
I have handled vintage WR rifles that had too much drop at the heel and did not fit me. The very fine rifle @Rare Breed bought, and had imported and then sorted by JJ did fit.

I am indebted to @Rare Breed to have the opportunity to care for this rifle for a time.

My thanks once again!

 

[Green Chile]

Very nice to keep it in the family. Any plans for it?

Yes indeed! Hope to get home and try her out.

I intend for it to see Africa. Hopefully life allows that to happen for me.
It won’t be a safe queen if I get my say.

Now, why am I not surprised at the speed of the sale? Exquisite rifle, and congrats to Rare Breed and the new owner.

Toby, you need to ride down and see me for a legal consultation. I think we can file suit against rare breed for use of your trade name and trademark kitchen island sales program.

I accept retainers in the form of ammunition and/or trophy fees.

Congrats to both of you. Just a shame it wasnt in the UK

Here is a link to a 12 second video of my first shot with the 500 NE. I hit steel, but not sure you can pick that up. Second shot I think the front trigger got my trigger finger. Have to work on that!
Recoil is definitely present but definitely not unbearable.
For what it’s worth, I am not a YouTuber. I had not posted a video in 8 years.

That is a truly beautiful rifle and very high quality. Good luck on your hunt!

I have become the Toby of Double Rifles...lol!!! I have some expensive hunts I want to take especially to get my Rhino to finish out my quest for the big 5. I am therefore selling my 500 NE Westley Richards. The following are my costs and needs so as I always do there is full transparency. I paid $12,000 for the rifle at auction in France. It cost me $1,300 to get it here. I then paid JJ Perodeau to make the rifle perfect which he did for $1,400 with shipping I have all in $15,000. I have over $1,000 in bullets, dies and brass. I am looking for $21,500 which includes shipping to C US. Yes, I always have sold at my cost or up to 20% discount as so many of you have experienced but this rifle is worth my asking price with the components. Only the market will tell of course.

For sale, a Westley Richards built (see registry certificate from them) in 1908 in 500 NE 3 inch. This is a Westley Richards built for Army Navy as you can see on the certificate from Westley Richards. The rifle was completely refurbished to as new condition. When I bought the rifle I sent it to JJ Perodeau to have it checked out and he reported it was perfect after his once over and minor tightening. The red dot scope is not included. The gun regulates to 1.5 inches at 50 yards using IMR 3031 at 83 grains. The rifle has a 28 inch barrel and 15 LOP. It weighs 11.5 pounds which is perfect for a 500 NE. It is extractors, not ejectors. Included with the purchase is the following...good luck if you could even get these items as they are almost all out of stock but now you would have them:
550 proiettili di A-Frame, Woodleigh sia in Soft che FMJ e Hornady... vedi foto.
3 matrici di ricarica, un RCBS, Hornady, Redding
200 pezzi di ottone.

Guarda le foto per vedere l'assoluta bellezza del fucile.

Vorrei sapere se siete interessati ad uno scambio tra il vostro Westley Ricard cal. 500 ne e una mia doppietta WJ Jeffery calibro 475 n. 2 NE matricola 18923. la doppietta che propongo in permuta è in ottime condizioni, non viene fornita con custodia ma viene fornita con matrici e tutto il necessario per ricaricare il 475 No. 2 Jeffery. Se interessati posso inviare foto.
Grazie

Sono diventato il Toby dei Double Rifles...lol!!! Ho delle cacce costose che voglio fare soprattutto per far finire al mio Rhino la mia ricerca dei big 5. Quindi vendo il mio 500 NE Westley Richards. Di seguito sono riportati i miei costi e le mie esigenze, così come faccio sempre, ci sarà piena trasparenza. Ho pagato 12.000 $ per il fucile all'asta in Francia. Mi è costato 1.300 $ per portarlo qui. Ho poi pagato JJ Perodeau per rendere il fucile perfetto, cosa che ha fatto per 1.400 $ con spedizione. Ho tutto in 15.000 $. Ho più di 1.000 $ in proiettili, matrici e ottone. Sto cercando 21.500 $ che includono la spedizione a C US. Sì, ho sempre venduto al mio costo o con uno sconto fino al 20% come molti di voi hanno sperimentato, ma questo fucile vale il prezzo richiesto con i componenti. Solo il mercato lo dirà, ovviamente.

In vendita, un Westley Richards costruito (vedi il certificato di registrazione da loro) nel 1908 in 500 NE 3 pollici. Questo è un Westley Richards costruito per l'esercito della Marina come puoi vedere sul certificato di Westley Richards. Il fucile è stato completamente ristrutturato come nuovo. Quando ho acquistato il fucile l'ho mandato a JJ Perodeau per farlo controllare e lui ha riferito che era perfetto dopo il suo controllo e un piccolo serraggio. Il cannocchiale a punto rosso non è incluso. La pistola si regola a 1,5 pollici a 50 iarde usando IMR 3031 a 83 grani. Il fucile ha una canna da 28 pollici e 15 LOP. Pesa 11,5 libbre, il che è perfetto per un 500 NE. Sono estrattori, non eiettori. Incluso nell'acquisto è quanto segue... buona fortuna se riesci anche solo ad ottenere questi articoli poiché sono quasi tutti esauriti ma ora li avresti:
550 proiettili A-Frames, Woodleigh sia Soft che FMJ e Hornady...vedi foto.
3 matrici di ricarica, una RCBS, Hornady, Redding
200 pezzi di ottone.

Guarda le foto per ammirare la bellezza assoluta del fucile.

Ciao, il fucile a doppia canna Westley&Richard è ancora in vendita?
