The concave rib on the Lloyd is original. That treatment was common on British rifles. Most Jeffery's were done in a similar way (which is mentioned in their catalog) and I remember another Lloyd, a boxlock, that was the same. I consider the price pretty strong for a hammergun. I wouldn't want it because of the weight, way too heavy for a .400.

Nowatny in Praha sold a lot of nice guns. Some of their stuff is known to have been retailed.

Really nice .400s are not easy to find now. A good friend finally got one last month. He looked for almost a year. He had only one opportunity for a nice one in the price range you gave, and someone else snapped it up before he could even consider the gun. Most of the good quality .400s available in that price range in the US are pretty used up.
