Interesting Westley Richards Martini-Henry Cadet single-shot rifle project featuring desirable New South Wales Public School Cadet Force markings and an attractive wooden buttstock marked "NSW CFWR-952." The receiver bears the historic New South Wales Public School Cadet Force designation, while the opposite side displays Westley Richards manufacturer markings, adding considerable appeal for collectors of Australian military cadet firearms. This example features an approximately 26.5-inch unmarked barrel left in the white, with a bore measuring roughly .22 caliber and exhibiting sharp, reflective rifling. The exact chambering remains unidentified and will require verification by a qualified gunsmith. The barrel incorporates several mounting holes that appear intended for the installation of a scope mounting arrangement or iron sights. The receiver, barrel, and other metal components exhibit an appealing age-related patina, while the wooden buttstock remains in solid condition with minor handling marks and signs of use but no major damage reported. The rear sling swivel is missing, and the rifle is offered without a forearm. Mechanically, the classic Martini action, extractor, and trigger all function properly. With its desirable Australian cadet markings, Westley Richards manufacture, sharp reflective bore, and historic military character, this is an appealing foundation for a restoration or custom gunsmithing project.
