Up for sale is a very rare and early “Best Quality” .375 Holland & Holland barreled action takedown Mauser rifle.

I am mostly looking for modern shootable 425 Westley Richards ammo rather than vintage collectible stuff right now. I would also like to find reloading components (dies, brass, bullets). Thank you.

I bought this gun awhile back in a group of guns and always thought it was very nice but I really don’t need it. I am not an LC Smith expert but from the research I have done, this appears to be a very nice example of a pre-1913 No 3 grade gun. It has a very attractive amount of remaining case...

I am selling a few more select rifles out of my personal collection. This one is a very fine Custom Mauser Express rifle in 7x57 Mauser. This rifle was purchased from the, now long gone, Fine Gun Room at the Bass Pro Shops in Dallas several years ago. The salesman thought that it may be a Duane...

Ok, I am stuck at home for a few days and dreaming of Africa and hunting. As a collector and appreciator of firearms, these topics also conjure up images of fine firearms (mostly English) steeped in history and class. Thus, I was musing to myself in regard to an "ultimate" collection of big game...

I thought you guys may enjoy this one. It is a prewar (1920s) WJ Jeffery .404 caliber magazine rifle with case and accessories. It was made on a Mauser Magnum Single Square Bridge action and is pretty well unmolested even still having the checkered steel trapdoor buttplate. The cleaning rod in...

I have an extremely nice Cogswell & Harrison Magazine Rifle in 404 Jeffery for sale. According to Cogswell, this rifle was made in 1949.

I am trying to work on a good factory load to take on a S. Africa hunt in October for Sable, Gemsbok, Hyena, and possibly a few other smaller animals. Most of the ammo loaded in the US uses 140 grain bullets but I ready so much about how this caliber shines with heavier bullets. Does anyone...
