First Double Rifle, a project

Looking at the cocking leavers on the second photo I would guess it had Deeley ejectors.

It would be one hell of a project to build them from scratch.

This is exactly, what I am thinking....

I can ask my gunsmith, if he can do this, with the foreend of my rifle as an copy, he can take measures from.

:notworthy:
HWL, I'd be very interested to hear what your gunsmith thinks
I will do so,.... but he is an old guy, older than your gun.

I hope I can talk to him, after corona. :(

I would very much appreciate you doing that. It's a kind offer.
I am very new to africahunting and not good with technology. Is there a way we could correspond privately?
 
Seems your on the right track if you can find the right gunsmith....do yourself a favor and whatever it is or was when you do the stock make it an extractor gun..
 
Contact Scott Wilson Gun Makers . He has an extensive amount of experience , in repairing vintage double barreled rifles .
 
Aussie Mal, please keep us informed of your progress with frequent updates, it is an interesting project that I am sure a lot of us would like to share.

I will. At the moment it is 'waiting in the queue' at the gunsmiths in a different State of Australia to me. I also sent my S2 Beretta shotgun along to have Breily chokes fitted.
