ShadowJohan,
In Page 422 Of Jon Speed's book, "Original Oberndorf Sporting Rifles", show a Westley Richards Double Square Bridge Magnum Mauser in 404 Jeffrey, made in 1938 (SN BUGN 113405), that has been restocked.
But I also agree that the price is way over the top. Maybe that's why it's been listed for over 6 months.

<JOHAN>Gentlemen
The rifle seems to be reconditioned. I wonder it's a true 404 from start or a re-barreling? I know it's not completely uncommon...
I have seen a 404 by Vickers built on magnum action, never a W&R.
The price is not realistic to say the least.
Cheers
