Thanks for the photo. This is the only Boss double rifle of any kind I have ever seen, even in a photograph. In all the African books and stories and other literature, I have seen no mention of Boss rifles. It's a beautiful piece with the same distinctive look as a Boss O/U shotgun.
The Boss website lists current pricing for S/S double rifles at 99,750 GBP ($156,000) plus VAT (refundable if you export the gun to the US). The starting price for an O/U rifle is 142,000 GBP ($223,000). However, I believe you could order a gun in either configuration and resell it at a gain. You probably couldn't do that with a new Purdey or Holland rifle.
