W. J. Jeffery made one sidelock .600 snap action rifle in their history, (to date), it is number 22368 and was an ejector model made with Joseph Brazier back action locks. The rifle has 24 inch barrels, 1 + 4 folding leaf sights to 500 yds. The rifle is stocked with original Selous grips which are the steel reinforcement plates you see on the pistol grip. The rifle is engraved with Indian game.
The rifle was made for C Larsen.

This is really something else among its peers in that vintage of heavy rifles. I would love to see it!

We don't at present and have never made a rifle like this but I am sure we could, if our arm is twisted and there is the necessary patience for a project like this to be completed.
Thank you
