Who stopped to look at the "Double Rifles" on the Westley Richards stand in the British Shooting Show ?
On show in W R's display case was their .600 NE India Rifle that had been engraved by Paul Lantuch with gold, diamonds, sapphire and emerald inlays, the workmanship was outstanding with a price to match.
If lottery money was available "I would buy one just to shoot oil drums" :crazy: :lol:
Base model no engraving starts at £79,000 add the gold the rare stones and the engraving and your only a few thousand short of £300,000
Also anyone looked at the stall with the "Winchester Rifle Collection" on show ? the owner said that he was only one or two trips short of forty visits to the US in order to put his rifle collection together.
Better show than the West Midlands very little crappy distractions.

Sadly the one time my numbers came up for a first division prize, I didn't have a ticket in. :(
