whitworth rifles

Gents:
A couple of months back I mentioned a Whitworth 375 for sale at a gun shop near me. Damned if it isn't still there! That is a sharp handling rifle. Matching action and barrel number..The stock had a piece broken off and then epoxied back on but other than that a nice rifle.

Price tag of $599 but likely they'd accept less for cash on the barrelhead. As a lefty I wish I were a righty. Good deal for someone.

No wonder its still there lol NRA 99% on the safari express model with english wood and leafs is 700$. 95% is 499$. Sounds like his SHOULD be about 350

Whitworth

That's actually a very good price for a Whitworth in .375 H&H. I would offer less only because of the stock, but wouldn't turn it down for that price. You are hard pressed nowadays to find them in that price range.

Milehighshooter -- I'll buy as many as you can find for $350!

If you could get it for $99 or under then buy a nice stock and then you'd be set. I like my Whitworth.
