Thanks HB. I figure if there's no standout candidates for Sir William Burdett it won't add much historic value to the gun. I'll keep at it when I have time.

Thanks Mike, seemed like a good buy to me. Enjoy the two you just acquired, and your new home in the lower 48.

You did a job with those two guns. The Westley Richards sidelever is a classic. It has the things that collectors like, such as the damascus barrels and the sidelever action. The Higham hammer rifle sounds like an old rifle that is easy to handle.

The people who made guns back then were very skilled.

It is getting harder to find guns that're in good shape and the right size. So I think getting two, out of three is a result. The Westley Richards sidelever and the Higham hammer rifle are examples of old guns. I like the Westley Richards sidelever and the Higham hammer rifle because they are old and well made.
