Interesting barrel crowns. Is that a Webley screwgrip action? Beautiful little rifle. I would love to stalk an elk with it.
Yes, it is a Webley screw grip. I'm curious as to when that patent expired. This rifle has "patent" engraved around the top lever, presumably something that would have stopped after patent expiration. I understand that Webley (& Scott?) would have made the barreled action to be finished by Watson Brothers. I have ordered the rifles history from Watson tonight and will report any details when that arrives.
