So some details

P Webley and Son

1893
500 3" BPE
28" Octagonal barrel conventional rifling 1:40" twist 9/10 condition
Top lever with twin Anson and Deeley under lugs locking
Back action rebounding side hammer
Pistol grip stock
Rigby fore end latch and buffalo horn grip cap
Sling eyes
Express sights marked 150 and 250 yards

Mechanically perfect condition
Cosmetically good wood but two pieces split off the top rear of the fore end where it is very thin and unsupported

The metal work was heavily covered in light to heavy rust spots but no heavy pitting.
Something has been spilled on the pistol grip Checkering and dropped off the steel grip cap and this is mostly removed except for the bottom of some of the fine Checkering
