Jeffery Trade Pattern Fahrquharson in .375 Flanged
      #264613 - 06/05/15 09:40 AM

Well, I've been the appointed caretaker of this old girl, retailed by James Burrow, for a few years now. Finally got around to loading up some ammunition for it, as I'm not fussy about shooting the old Kynoch rounds that came with the rifle & the new Jamison brass that also came with it are too fat at the base.

Looks like it is a 3a or 3b action rather than the typical side safety Jeffery style Farquharson.
A Farq in 375 Flanged would be a really useful rifle in N.A..
Can we see some more pictures of it?
Also, I have a few boxes of Westley Richards retailed 375 Flanged magnum I would sell but am not sure of the process getting it to Canada if you are interested.

What a beauty.

I would like to see some more photos of it please!

Cheers,

Chris

Huvius:
It is a 3B (3 screws on left side of receiver) pattern.

Thank you for the kind offer, but getting ammunition across the border is a non-starter, both because of your laws, but also because of obscene transport costs.

Huvius & Rockdoc:
More photos will have to wait until December as I am in the process of packing up, as soon as I finish my town chores, and returning to the cottage for the next 6-7 months; the joys of being retired!

:-)

except for the fact that we just have dial-up at the cottage.

:-(
