Westley Richards SxS
I found an old Westley Richards SxS at a local used gun shop.
It's 12 gauge with hammers. It's got a side lever or what ever you call it on the side. It looks old. That's all I know about it.
Anyone could tell me how much these are worth etc. would be appreciated.
thanks Jarrod

Jarrod, they can be very valuable. The price would depend on a lot of things, not the least of which is the condition. What were they asking for it?

they were asking $350 dollars. Think it's worth it.

Jarrod - I strongly suspect that it's a "W.Richards" and not a "Westley Richards"

Double check. There were a lot of gunmakers in the UK that came up with similar sounding names in attempt to capitalize on more famous maker's success.

I say your right. It probably is a W. Richards instead of a Westley Richards.

How much is it worth being a W. Richards?

You can find those W.Richards guns for @ $100.00. I haven't seen one lately, but they are usually in such poor shape as to be only good for decoration.
