The Westley Richards Droplock Double Rifle in 450/400 Nitro Express was one of the most popular safari rifles of the Edwardian era, combining the manageable recoil and versatility of the 450/400 cartridge with the unique field-serviceability of the hand-detachable lock system. Professional hunters working in East Africa and Rhodesia particularly valued the ability to clean or replace the locks without returning to a gunsmith.
