The Jim Corbett double rifle brought $230,000 plus the bump! That would be about $276,000, depending on exactly how the bidder bid and paid.

Some lovely rifles there, the doubles and some singles. Plus some of his revolvers!
Some of the firearms I have seen in his books and magazine articles.

5500 $ for the Westley 12 bore droplock doesn´t look bad, something wrong with it I guess ? best

A couple of the Holland doubles went for the low estimate or below - a very nice .500/450 went for $50K. Always some surprises at these auctions!

Some of his colts are incredibly unique - made up from frames, barrels, hammers, sights from different guns, engraving, holsters, grips. It makes me want to custom a Colt SAA.
