K The auction catalogue didn't mention the loose forend and trigger guard though, otherwise I think I wouldn't have been bidding against an internet bidder and would have got it for £200-£250, it's effectively a Webley boxlock "shot and examined by Holland & Holland" £100 to fix the loose bits. The case is lovely as well, K Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
