[QUOTE=Roger Payne;312208]Well Rob, I suppose it's just that I've owned a few rifles scopes & brackets now over several decades of collecting. I've also been getting the repro brackets made now since 1989/90 when I received the first batch. All of them have required hand finishing, which I always do myself (apart from a very few released to the trade 'as is' in the past, & about twenty that forummer Nigel G fettled up himself), which amounts to somewhere between 500 & 600. That's a lot of filing! And of course one gets to notice subtle little variations.......
If there's interest I could take a few photo's to illustrate some different variations, but don't press me on time scale! Am trying to get stock ready for the Trafalgar on Saturday, get myself psyched up for the task of digitising my RFD records, & so on. Thank heavens I don't have to go to 'proper' work any more (sorry to rub it in)!

RP this is proper work. The correct records needs to be out there for all to know. As well as PL you know what we need to know other wise myth will reign. Time is short the desire is great the knowledge is shrinking, print will preserve the knowledge.
