Info wanted on Jeffery double in .500 BPE
#163922 - 13/07/10 04:38 AM

First time "poster" and I am trying to find out some information about our Jeffery's double rifle 500 Black Powder Express. Anybody know anything or can point us in the right direction?

Welcome to the site!
You have come to the right place, from here you need to give us much more information to work with.
Start with some detailed photos, including all marks, letters, and numbers from the action and barrel metal.

Looking forward to seeing what you have there and what we come up with.

Cheers
Tinker

On both sides of the stock it says WJ Jeffery & Co.
The serial number is 2615
When we turn the barrels over there are 3 symbols on each barrel, one looks like the initials BP or BF with a crown on top, then looks like 2 sledgehammers crossed ith two dots in the openings, then the crossed sledgehammers with 4 dots, one in each opening, then 500 EX.
The barrels are 26 inchs long
It is beautiful, highly engraved, and metal to wood is very tight.
Sorry no pictures.
Do you know how old it is, how many were made anything? I can't find any mention of this gun on the internet.
Thanks

Hi 500BPExpress,

Welcome, To get the best answers you are going to have to post some photos of the firearm in all positions including the section that has the details you provide. As they say "A Picture is worth a Thousand Words"

Cheers,

Jeff Gray

Hi Perv, sorry Paul,

I agree, we all need a daily dose of candy, forget the medical test results...

Cheers Paul,

Jeff

OK, but I am not so good with the camera, (or figuring out how to post a picture on a forum) don't want to disappoint you all though - pictures are on the following link
