Did a few pictures of my two Parker-Hale M82 rifles and had hoped to learn something on those.
Top rifle is serial R-30120 which I got told is listed in Parker-Hale books as
T. Hallam means Charnwood Ordnance, for what I've been told. Note the rifle also has the rifle serial stamped on bottom of the pistol grip. I also have the handstop and bipod for it (plus open sights), but the screw head of the handstop seems to have been messed with a bit, so have to fix that first. For what I was able to understand is that this rifle therefore is one of the former Canadian M82 sniper rifles, hence if someone has a lead on a Kahles ZF69 from the Canadian contract with the correct scope rings for this rifle...R30120 SOLD TO MR T. HALLAM 5/11/1996 FROM CANADA AS M82'S ORIGINALLY
Bottom rifle is serial R-33458, listed in Parker-Hale books as
.. as posted on this forum. Not sure if this indicates that this rifle also was a former Canadian sniper rifle, but seems to have been sold to the very same person as the other rifle. It came complete with diopter rear sight as well as a Pecar variable power scope.M82 ENTRY 609 and sold to a Mr T HALLAM of Canada on the 5/11/1996
Would appreciate if someone could teach me whether it is possible to verify one or both as former Canadian sniper rifle.
If there is interest, I also have a PH M85 rifle, can do some pictures of this one too.Information
