    Ernest, I have a shot a few of them and they are all a dream. The bore is worn and the rifling is no longer sharp but still quite strong. For me it will be well and truly good enough.

    Woodbutcher, they are very user friendly except perhaps for the shape of the wrist for tall people like me, hard to get your hand wrapped around there sometimes, and yes very lucky. Just glad I took a second look now rather than later.

    Ovidio, cheers. I'll need to chase an M38 one day, but honestly I prefer the long rifles for looks.

    I too like the long ones, but I got the shortie at a good price at the time, so I decided to go for it.
    Next one will be the long one, but in some time. Now I’m full.
