Superb Richards Photos

[Fox Creek Kid]

Incredibly detailed, as well as crisp & clear, photos of a 1st Model Richards conversion. Notice the subtle differences between it & modern clones, e.g., hammer cam:

I've never been able to talk anyone who had a nice original Open Top or Richards conversion into letting me take one completely apart.  Never been able to afford a nice Richards for myself either.  I've repaired some to return them to shooting condition but the owner would only allow just enough disassembly to make the fix.
It is a treat to see a really nice gun carefully pulled apart and photographed.
I sure wish it was mine
