Westley Richards Patents: The Top Lever and Bolted Rib Extension Of 1858
​
To decipher the patent codes applied to the making of a new Westley Richards side-by-side sporting gun, we need to refer back to the original patent specifications. The earliest of these is the means by which it is opened and held shut. That dates back to patent 2149 of September 24th 1858. It is described as ‘Improvements in Firearms and Cartridges’. The record shows that the invention was dated 24th September 1858 and sealed on 25th November 1859.
