WTB: Whitworth

[gmkmd]

Looking for a first-generation Parker-Hale Whitworth rifle. I'm sure someone has one gathering dust in their safe that could use a new home. Only interested in the British-made Parker-Hale. Send PM.

I saw this Whitworth on Armslist--it's not mine, I do not know the seller...

I just saw your listing.. Yes, I do have a first generation in my safe.. It's got the hex bullet clamp that will convert a solid cylindrical bullet to a hex bullet with the aid of a vice..
I have never shot it. and my old friend, from who I purchased it 10 years ago, shot it only a handful of times. It is in like new condition and I have no idea of its worth at present..
I will be selling it and you are looking for one.. Seems like we can come to a fair arrangement. I will get you photos if you are interested.
I feel that its worth just shy of 3,000.00 and would entertain an offer.

Thanks
Bill

Are you talking about a repro or an original?

I believe Pedersoli has recently released their Whitworth also.

Glen, try the LRML group on Yahoo.com That's where I found my 1st gen Parker Hale Whitworth and 1st gen PH Volunteer. It's easy to sign up for and is all things about long range muzzle loading plus tips on how to load, what powder they like, grease lubes, and probably more than you would ever want to know about Whitworths and Henry rifled Volunteers. They tend to be a little fussy about what you feed them but once you get them dialed in HOLY COW! they are amazing.

Thanks Randall. I am familiar with the LRML group, and it is very helpful. But it's actually been pretty weak for quite some time. Very little activity.

That which ye seek is now available. The price is $1495.99 for a new gun. I just received their " official" notice and pricing.
