Look at that photo closely. That rifle standing close to F.C.Selous is not a Farquarson action, but a Holland & Holland, Holland & Woodward 1894 patent action. Two such rifles were owned by Selous and replaced his famous .461 Gibbs – Farquarson: From 1895 on he used such a H&H 1894 rifle in .303 during travels to Asia Minor, North America, Sardinia and East Africa. From 1904 to 1913 he replaced it with another H&H 1894 falling block in .375 2 ½” NE for use in North America, Norway and East Africa.
