F/S Westley Richards Martini action Rifle Mfg. 1896
I purchased this recently from another member here but unfortunately I need the money for something else now.
The Rifle is in Very Good condition except for a couple of marks on the muzzle. These were produced for the Boer War and this one probably saw action in the war . Only about 7000 were produced and most were destroyed after the War .
$1475.00 Shipped to the lower 48 PP , PMO .Antique no FFL
PM Your email address for photos .
Thanks for looking . ,B.

Yes , I cleaned it up with a File so it won’t effect shooting or attaching a Bayonet .

Did you turn the crown down with a lathe or counter sink? If I recall a bullet could not safely pass through that muzzle.

Don't be mad that I'm asking questions. 1400 dollars for a rifle that was dangerous to shoot and has been hand filed at the muzzle is reasonable ground to ask such questions.

If the orginal owners thread it was noted to be unsafe. I saw those pictures from the first seller. Would you fire it then? Would you fire it now and expect accuracy?  Post some pictures of the rifle what it looked like before and after
