oooohhhhhh!

Wonder if the bolt was modified to work with the magazine he bought? It's not just a simple slap in the magazine deal.

John, when I spoke to him he confirmed the bolt was "the correct .22 no2 bolthead with the feeding chamfer" on the bottom. The instructions for the mod are in the LoC anyway, so anyone can do it. So... if he did buy that particular magazine, then he has been caught in a little fib, having said the rifle was as he got it many years ago.... He did say he had three of the magazines at one stage and reckons he has first offer on a couple more he knows about too, so it may not be the one he bought...
