Deeley Edge target rifle
      #226360 - 04/03/13 03:10 AM

Hi Guys
I have a very nice Deeley Edge target rifle, 1881, engraved, octaganal Henry barrel, 450 no 2 musket, sight set, reloading tools. I have a case for the rifle but the inside of the case has been stripped. I would like to restore the case but have no idea as to the lay-out, material used, etc.
I would appreciate it if someone could post a picture of an original case showing these details.
Alternatively, refer me to a book or reference that would have this info.
Thanks in advance
Charls

Charls if you can get Wal Winfer's British Single Shot Rifles Vol 5 page XII, and page 46.

In case you do not have the book - pics


This pic is very dark in the book




This one is a takedown but may give you an idea of accessories

The Double Rifles Photos and Archives section on this site has some wonderful pictures of cased rifles. There's plenty of great ideas there.
