Westley Richards was the leader in British breech-loading single shot development. Their early designs predated both the paper cartridge and coil case forms of the 1850-1860 period. Volume 4 describes in great detail Westley Richard's designs during the early breech-loading period. Much attention is given to the text and hundreds of photos and drawings of rifles, sights, reloading tools, and cartridges for all models.
