    Agree with all that’s been said in the last few posts.
    I would be happy with £3k, it would get me my money back and get me the rifle I’m looking at.

    On the subject of the colour of the wood, I did spend a while looking at this when I first purchased the rifle.

    A real shame.
    I have only ever actually fired 10 rounds through this rifle myself, it’s more of a collectors piece for me.

    I’ll send the serial number over to Gil to see if he can turn up any info on it.

    So it was initially a British rifle and at some point it was transferred to the South African military, that’s for sure.
