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.

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.
