Re: Army & Navy CSL Farquharson - .450/.400 3.25" NE

Seeing Bouldersmith's Farquharson made me think of mine, so I looked up this thread. I realized I had additional information to add, so here goes.

This rifle is well documented. It was made for A&N by Charles Osborne and shipped February 14, 1911. It languished in A&N's inventory until 1919, when it was sold. It has it's own full-page writeup in Wal Winfer's Volume 6 of British Single Shot Rifles mentioned above. Here's a scan:



I particularly wanted to post this scan because of the request Huvius for details of the stampings on the front of the action, all conveniently shown and discussed here by Winfer.
