Nice grouping...
Regards, Jim
VERY nice indeed
Added a nice P13 to the collection yesterday Serial No: 1116
Regards Simon
There was one for sale in the UK which had a .303 caliber barrel - is this the one? Or is yours still in original .276 caliber?
No it isn't that one.
This one is all original & in .276, it still has the 1981 Proof Exemption Certificate because Ammunition was not available
Regards Simon
Very nice. Maybe we can mate them and split the pups?
1116 & 1117 I wonder if they ended up together at the same trials.
This one was sold through Weller & Dufty circa 1981, the chap I acquired it from has had it since 1985, still have the original 1985 invoice for £275
Regards Simon
"R101": not on an airship was it?
"BD" for "Balloon Department"?
There was such a department from the Victorian Era to WWI at least from a little cursory googling...
Wouldn't be a bad place to issue a limited number of rifles unlikely to be used much!
