Thread: Prototype Westley Richards Hammerless Monkey Tail restoration

I will trawl through Wal Winfer's books this evening and pull the various references together

20 of these barreled actions came to NZ and changed hands a bit.
But Ed Smith ex CHCH owned a number of them.
Some were in Wal's books complete with breech blocks etc.
Subsequently parts have been miss mothered.
I have seen what remaind and the WR MT was so complete it was worth owning.

Someone clearly dissasembled and parts got lost.
One I saw was in quite good condition but the breech block ( in Wals book images ) is now not with it.
Because it was a prototype we now don't have any clues about what was happening inside that block !
