Or walk with Kings - nor lose the common touch...

Lo do they call to me,
They bid me take my place

Where the brave may live forever.

While I am not experienced enough to know if this rifle qualifies as a London Best, It sure looks the part to me! Wow, what wood...

The best Jeffery around - you don't often see them
around but they are top rifles.

Good pick up.

Thanks guys...She's a good little gun and will be going to Africa, maybe as soon as August.

I appreciate all of the posts and helpful historical data provided by some of the members on this forum.

Now it's time to develop a load!

I have never handled a Jeffery rifle that did not fit me perfect. I really like them

That is one of the best looking Jeffery's I have ever seen.

And in 450/400... a perfect calibre.

Into my heart on air that kills
From yon far country blows:
What are those blue remembered hills,
What spires, what farms are those?
That is the land of lost content,
I see it shining plain,
The happy highways where I went
And cannot come again.

I had one just like that. SN 12804. It had a red rubber recoil pad though. 24in barrels, ejectors. It didn't quite fit me right, being too high in the comb. Left it with a local dealer to sell when I left to deploy overseas on operations. My "friend" sold it on to one of the major firearm distributors and used the proceeds to offset his bill with them. I think I ended up with about $700 US by the time the banks finished with him. The world's cheapest double ain't that great when you're the seller.
