Two BSA Martinis I brought back/ game keepers rack

Good Day,
I was fortunate when I was stationed in England that I found two decent BSA Martini rifles and brought them back to the US upon my return. I purchased a Martini International MkII and Model 12 (marked Society of Miniature Rifle Club) for target shooting. Both pieces are in good working order but the trigger on the Model 12 seems a bit heavy. Possibly a burr has developed, and I need to smooth it out a bit.

While in the UK, I was with a friend one weekend, and we stopped in a village antique fair on a Sunday. I saw this Norfolk game keepers (cottage) shotgun rack in the corner and didn't hesitate popping down the 50GBP asking price:clap: It's not a common find and reminds one of a shooting pasts long gone. I can't think of a better way to display them:cheers:.

Regards,
Michael

Very nice.

What a beautiful piece. Bet those don't come along very often- even in England.

So guy's, what sort of money is a BSA Martini International Mk III going for over in USA now-a-days?
I have one in my rifle safe that has not had a run out for about 5 years, I just keep cleaning the damn thing.
The last comp I used it for was a UK, East Midlands, 25 yard B/R comp and that got really boring, 200-200-200, etc, etc.
The only way to get some interest was to fit a 24x scope, which meant that I had to time my shots between heart beats because of the magnification/pulse jump.

Yes I know, 25 yards aint far but it's winter shooting, indoors.:red face:
