I mean we're not talking about a Stevens 311 here were talking about one of the most prestigious firms in the entire world when you're talking about Westley Richards. And I agree Mike, I would stop looking after buying a Westley Richards. I would figure I had the best there is so why keep looking.

Indeed and Lord Alfred Douglas was Oscar Wilde's lover. Wilde wrote about him and ended up in prison because of him. That was when he wrote the 'Ode to Reading Gaol' Back on topic, I always thought that scalloping on the back of box locks indicated best, or certainly better, grade, due to the intricate nature of the metal to wood fit there.

With regards to stating that it's not a Best gun, that was an assumption I made. It may indeed be a Best gun. I will post some more pics that I took today. Thanks again. Sincerely, Patrick
