William Evans Double Rifle 500 NE
The William Evans Double Rifle in 500 Nitro Express is among the heaviest and most powerful guns the Pall Mall shop produced. Built for elephant hunters in Central and West Africa who required absolute stopping power, the Evans 500 NE double rifle demonstrates that London's smaller houses were capable of producing dangerous-game doubles fully competitive with Holland & Holland and Rigby equivalents. These guns are extremely rare.
