Re: .500 - 3" double P. Webley & Son
|
In reply to:
The name of P. Webley was still used for several years after the merger of the companies on certain ranges of gun (as was the name of W&C Scott).
webley,
I have a nice old top lever hammerless P.Webley&Son marked double chambered for 450x3.25 BPE. It is engraved, and falls in the 10XXX serial number range, plus it has the W&S winged bullet markings on the bottom of the barrels just in front of the flats. I assume that this rifle was made after the merger from this marking, but haven't found the exact date of manufacture yet. If you can shed any light on the possible manufacture date I would appreciate the information.
Jim
