Hello all, I am hoping I can get some comments on the current market value of this Jeffery rifle. Reason for the valuation is the rifle's involvement in a potential trade.
Description: Jeffery, W.J. & Co. caliber .475 No 2, serial No. 227XX. Anson & Deeley boxlock action, full coverage scroll engraving on action, 90% original case colors, 24" original barrels, nitro proofed 500 gr bullet, 80 grains cordite. Excellent bores, plain stock wood. LOP 15 3/8" to replacement Silvers type pad 1" thick. Overall condition excellent.
I am aware of the similar rifles for sale at Champlin and William Larkin Moore, and I invite comparisons. Note that both of those have been restored, and also the difference in the straight vs. scalloped edge of the action metal.
I do apologize for the awful photos. The rifle is not currently available to me to get better shots.
All comments on valuation welcomed. I am particularly interested if anyone knows of any similar recent sales.
Thanks very much!
