WVFred,

I own a very similar rifle. Mine is a Type T 218 rifle completed by Cogswell & Harrison on 18th February 1931, but not collected until June 23rd 1938. It cost 12 guineas. The rifle spent alot of time in Central Africa, until the owner moved to NZ where it was auctioned off.

Mine has the same bolt knob, a steel buttplate, but the grip is capped in horn with a kidney shaped cheekpiece. It is a plain magazine rifle made for work, but cycles nicely and really has been loved- the bore is mint and the bluing very good indeed, and original.

This rifle is chambered for the 9.5 M/S cartridge, and has the same sights as yours.

They may not be a Westley Richards, but they are nice enough in their own right and a little different.

Mine will be for sale in the future, I want to find a GOOD home for it- where it will be put to good use hunting, but taken care of. Finding a good home for it is more important than the money. I have a few such rifles so it is surplus to my needs.
