    Perhaps it has a partnered rifle out there; does the bracket have a serial No. as members here can possibly track what rifle it may have been fitted to.
    What was the fleabay price on it as they vary from non-bracketed $1,400 - 1,800 up to $2,500 for ones with the brackets looks a pretty good pick up P.L may give advice on sticky drums and as he calls it crows on a wire.

    the bracket looks like one of the numrich repro's, so no rifle number.

    With all due respect Pete, whether you like or dislike doing them concerns us not one scintilla.

    This is all we give a hoot about, the quality of workmanship and amount of effort you put into them. My L1A1 No. 28456 being a prime example. Remember that one?

    Paul, don't worry about the cost, I guarantee you personally it will be worth every penny. And then some.

    Thats a great price well done, the last bit I cannot tell you only Mr Laidlericon can do that one thing he says is try to source local companies that have the expertise but there are 2 sides to this story;
    A) If you do go local whats to stop them faffing it up after they get into it and find they cannot do it I suffered that fate with a WWII compass going ex-east and they smashed the bezel glass handed it back and said sorry. Un-fixed
    B) Trusting the postal system - scary but should be alright - a shooting associate has posted a few No.32's to Mr Laidler from Australiaicon and they have all returned safely, they look and function flawlessly just as if they have come from the factory such is the quality of the refurb, when I was last there at my associates house he had ....well lets just say lots of them
