A Distinctively English 28 Bore

A small-bore sh***un, with hand-detachable locks, uniquely engraved and of ‘Modèle de Luxe’ quality has all the hallmarks of another order from an American collector. This incredible gun, however, was commissioned by a family from the North East of England, for a lucky gentleman in anticipation of his sixtieth birthday. The specifications speak of a proper game shooter’s twenty-eight bore, made to adult dimensions for driven game shooting.

Inside the Ledger: Westley Richards in the 1830s

Numbering amongst the antique books on the shelves at Westley Richards in Birmingham is a well-worn volume bearing a red label on the front cover with the name ‘Mr. Westley Richards’. An internal paper label shows it to have been purchased from J. Kirton’s General Stationery Warehouse in Cavendish Square, London.

The Art of Casemaking

Bringing gunmaking and casemaking together under one roof ensures every Westley Richards gun can leave Birmingham with a case worthy of it. A best gun does not truly leave Westley Richards alone. Its case is the final part of the commission: made to protect it, to accompany it through a lifetime of sport and, when opened, to present the finished gun as its makers intended.

Glorious Twelfth

On 12th August 1773, the authorities in Britain first imposed, under The Game Act of that year, a defined season for grouse shooting. By protecting the birds during the breeding season, Parliament hoped to help sustain healthy levels of game and prevent over hunting. It was an early recognition that, in order to assure the continuity of the sport, conservation measures had to be taken to preserve the quarry.

Westley Richards at the Scottish and English Game Fairs - 2026

The tradition of a gathering of the clans in some field adjacent to a stately pile somewhere in Britain has long been a highlight of the summer. It is somewhat ironic in the current climate of drought, parched fields and rivers depleted to a trickle after months without meaningful rain, to recall that the sad fate of the original CLA Game Fair was sealed by successive floods, which literally washed the event off the land two years in three.

Westley Richards Decades - the 1820s

One musty old tome, now much degraded and disheveled remains on the shelf at Pritchett Street, very much looking its 202 years of age. Over two centuries; that is worth a moment to contemplate. The hand that put quill to ink pot and then carefully recorded sales details every day in the Westley Richards shop in 1824 would have done so in a world whose inhabitants could not have, in their wildest dreams, imagined the one in which we live today.
