The 2 photos which will be posted by Marrakai later this evening (below this post) are described below. Both are 500 x 3" Nitro Express DR's. The LEFT gun is a (Joseph Lang) Webley Screw Grip you can see the Spade shaped Dolls head that intersects with the Toplever Spindle The RIGHT gun is a (Army & Navy) PHV1 actions you can see the Club (as in Ace of Clubs) shaped Dolls head that DOES NOT intersect with the Toplever Spindle You can see how "the dolls head cams the barrels down " by the shape it. It almost "pulls" the barrels tighter as the Toplever closes and hence why the Screw grip and PHV1 actions generally do not come loose. Quite a few other actions look very similar to a Webley PHV1 action but are not. You can also generally tell a Webley from a distance by te shape of the fences. Also, you can just see on the Joseph Lang stock behind the action an engraved piece of metal which - this is an insert covering a cross bolt through the stock. Some Webley's (and others) came with this, some didn't but I have heard the unititiated say it is a repair - not necessarily so. Hope this is clear. 500 Nitro |
