New Westley Richards 470NE on order, who wants to hear about it?

Great thread, thank you to the OP. I to have a WR in build, a 20 bore drop lock, and can attest to the amazing service Trigger, Steve and all the team at WR give time and time again. Very much looking forward to seeing your double come out, and the .404 is special to (built by WR as well I understand).

Tight lines, hot barrels and full glasses gentlemen.
I've had the opportunity to handle one of their 20 bore drop lock shotguns and they are superb; perfect balance, point very naturally, and gorgeous. Congratulations!
 
Well, boys.... Christmas is not here yet, but Santa and his elves are hard at it. Color case hardening, blueing, and ammo development with final regulation remain to be done, but I just received these from Trigger and for once I'm speechless.......

Congratulations
Hope to see it besides an elephant lying on the ground!!!

Beautiful
 
Simply beautiful. Classy and with lots of fine touches but not over the top in any way. I honestly would rather have that than a more embellished sidelock. You are a lucky man to have stumbled upon such a thing at just the right time for you!

There is something about Westley Richard’s that I can’t quite put my finger on, which really suits my tastes!
 
A thing of beauty!! well done indeed.
Is she off to be Colour Case Hardened at St Legers?
 
Absolutely spectacular! Should be home (relatively) soon!

Just moving to DM. Yes, please ask your friend if he knows somebody who might be willing to support a persistent hunt in the snow.

Hi Paul,
This is Daniel from Mankazana Safaris.

I saw your post regarding a hunt in Africa. I am sure you have been bombarded with messages and replies from other outfitters, so I will keep this one quick.
I have a feeling we have exactly what you need for a first safari.
If you'd like to hear more, please don't hesitate to reach out.

Yours sincerely,
