Westley Richards Droplock O/U 20 Gauge

The 20-gauge Westley Richards Droplock Over/Under is among the rarest sporting shotguns produced by any British maker. Commissioned almost exclusively as part of matched sets, the 20-bore Droplock O/U combines the ergonomic advantages of the O/U configuration with the unique field-serviceability of the Droplock mechanism. These guns are produced only on specific order and the waiting list is typically several years.
