nitro476,

The Westley Richards is a true A&D boxlock, about as genuine as they come, given the fact that they invented the A&D system.

The David McKay Brown is not a boxlock per se. Nor is it a sidelock. It is a trigger plate system in which all the lockwork is mounted on the trigger plate.

Here's a pic of the David McKay Brown lockwork from his website:

The Germans developed a similar trigger plate system known as the Blitz.

Interestingly, FAMARS has developed a new system very similar to the trigger plate mechanisms, in which all the lockwork and triggers are hand detachable, dropping from the bottom. Have you seen the ads? They call it "central sidelocks". Reference the ad on page 24 of the current DGJ - Spring 2005.

I'm not selling or buying these rifles. In my view the only relevance of the price is that they are comparably priced.

Thanks,
Curl
