Today's gun show score: A Whitworth Express Rifle in .375 H&H. These were imported by Interarms in the '70's and '80's, made in Manchester, England on a traditional Mauser '98 action. They did move the safety from the bolt shroud to the right side of the tang, but other than that it's a faithful copy of the Mauser. Traditional English express rifle, with the one standing leaf (for 100 yards) and two folding leaf (200 and 300 yards) rear sight, along with a big gold bead front. Pretty shadow line cheekpiece as well. It appears to be new and unfired.
