I can't help you but I love the pictures and will be sure to keep my eye open for one to add to the collection

Commonly known as the ".22 Cadet" You appear to have the foresight hood that is frequently missing. Total production is believed to have been as high as 17,000, but could have been "considerably smaller". Retail cost circa 1910 was $14.00 CAN. If yours has stamps in the butt and/or a serial number on the barrel that would indicated whether it was a commercial or military purchase piece.

Thanks Surpmil, what would you be expected to pay today?

Not up on UK prices, you might ask the auction houses what they'd suggest; Weller & Dufty for one.

Here in Canada, I'd guess a nice one would be not less than $250. CAN, perhaps more.
