Westley Richards & Co. 20g Best Quality Hand Detachable Lock Game Gun completed in 2021.  

The quintessential modern Westley Droplock Shotgun. 

Scaled 20g frame size with classic scroll back action body featuring Westley’s Snap Lever and Model ‘C’ Doll’s Head Extension, automatic “beetle back” safety, two triggers with a rolled guard bow, and hinged cover plate with Westley’s patented Hand Detachable Locks. The action body is color hardened with blacked furniture and traditional small scroll engraving in the House pattern with the Maker’s name in flowing banners on each side of the action. This is a modern interpretation of Westley’s 100-plus year House engraving found on the firm's Best Quality guns since the late 1800’s. Engraving was expertly executed by Marcus Hunt, one of today’s finest engravers. Gun includes a cased set of extra locks originally ordered with the gun.  

Chopper lump 29” barrels feature 2 ¾" chambers, smooth concave game rib and “Westley Richards & Co., England” engraved on the top rib. Barrels are fitted with Teague interchangeable chokes and have 2020 Birmingham proofs.  

Exhibition quality walnut stock with straight hand and 14 9 1/16” LOP over a checkered butt. The Splinter forend is fitted with Westley’s Deeley ejectors and Deeley forend latch with a horn forend tip. Stock and forend have 26 lpi point pattern checkering with Mullered borders. The stock oval remains blank.
