Vintage Jeffery and A. Hollis Double Rifles
I am looking for vintage Jeffery and A. Hollis double rifles in the Houston area. Bobc of this forum has been working on an article and we'd like to conduct a photo session in Houston. An exact time for the photo session as not been set as of now.

If you have a vintage Jeffery or A. Hollis and Son double rifle, please contact myself or Bobc of this forum.

Brett B used to have another one that was 3 numbers off from mine too. But his was hammerless top lever. Mines hammered with the Jones lever.

Quite a few exist over here if you need some photos.

You might remember Marrakai, he has a Jeffrey 450/400.

I know of a few A Hollis DR's and of course
a few more Jeff's.

Rusty,

I have a Jeffery side lock and box lock in 450/400. You are welcome to see them in Dallas. The box lock is a Leonard built gun and I suspect what you are interested in.
