No.4 Mk.II still in wrapping - current prices?

FWIW: I bought a "mummy" rifle for 175$ when they first came here to the States. That was early 90's?? Not too long ago I paid 500$ for one out of the wrap. I just got a really nice 9/52 PF 251xxx for 300$ with almost 200rds Greek 303.

I was buying them 20 at a time back then. Both of my personal wrapped ones went back to England this year and were sold by "guess who?". I still have one unwrapped one that I shoot.

I've lost count without getting out my record book as to how many were exported back via BDL. Most were purchased elsewhere. Almost all were surplused here in the early 1990's straight from Donnington via Century Arms in Vermont, (now Miami, FL). My two personal rifles were A3841 and A5820. Both new in the wrap. And now you know why my neck was broken from all the packing and shipping! Enjoy those rifles! It actually does my heart good to put fine British rifles back on the ranges of England not to mention many fine Canadian rifles back on the ranges of Canada. You guys have been my best customers since the US$ has been destroyed by the current government here. Your business is appreciated more than you know.

[Brian Dick]

I should correct that the US$ has been destroyed by the last two governments here. I can't just blame the current one. I sure wish I could run my business that way but it doesn't work in the real world!

Sure you can just sell the Chinese a trillion dollar interest in your company.

Brian, want to set up a satellite business on the west side of the US? Nevada is very gun and business friendly and warm most of the year - ok, it was -6 F last night, but don't let that put you off

Well Brian one of the returned rifles will be getting its first outing on a cold and frosty MOD Altcar range tomorrow morning. It is getting fed with new hand load 303 ( no old crap going down this pipe).

We are on one of the shorter ranges (200yds ) so it should be interesting to see how it groups. Thanks again for rescueing these fine rifles from bubba.

I have a certain LOVE for Nevada even though I'm not much for the desert environment. It's a long story. I come out and work for/buy from SAR/LMO from time to time. I'll be there for Shot too next month. Not working but just cruising the show and touching base with others in the trade.
