WR 375 2.5 w/16" barrels
#230423 - 24/05/13 12:47 AM

A couple of months back I posted some information concerning a WR 375 2.5" with 16" barrels. This being an unusual barrel length and the question of originally in such cases is always discussed. Recently I received the provenance from WR on this rifle and a copy of the original ledger entry. The rifle is completely unchanged since it left WR in 1924 with 16" barrels as described. This rifle is for sale and/or trade. Please PM if anyone has a serious interest. Roger

Put up some pictures along with the price down in the classified area.

Would make for a nice short carrying case.
A toe under case would be about the size of a trumpet case.

Pictures would be great especially to see how the barrels were profiled as far as taper and muzzle diameters etc.

Thanks for the nudge(photos/detailed description) and suggestion to put it in the classifieds. Will try to do that sometime next week.

For sure it is handy in the hands.

This is certain proof that the gunmakers would make whatever a customer wanted and was willing to pay for.
