    Need help finding a Nottingham UK gunsmith that I have lost track of....

    Can anyone in the UKicon can help me find a current phone number for Paul Varley of PMV Consultants. Paul was involved in making target rifles out of the Swede Mausers and refurbishing Canadianicon Ross rifles a few years ago.
    Cheers,
    Warren

    A Collector's View - The SMLE Short Magazine Lee Enfield 1903-1989. It is 300 8.5x11 inch pages with 1,000+ photo’s, most in color, and each book is serial-numbered.  Covering the SMLE from 1903 to the end of production in India in 1989 it looks at how each model differs and manufacturer differences from a collecting point of view along with the major accessories that could be attached to the rifle. For the record this is not a moneymaker, I hope just to break even, eventually, at $80/book plus shipping.  In the USA shipping is $5.00 for media mail.  I will accept PayPal, Zelle, MO and good old checks (and cash if you want to stop by for a tour!).  CLICK BANNER to send me a PM for International pricing and shipping. Manufacturer of various vintage rifle scopes for the 1903 such as our M73G4 (reproduction of the Weaver 330C) and Malcolm 8X Gen II (Unertl reproduction). Several of our scopes are used in the CMP Vintage Sniper competition on top of 1903 rifles. Brian Dick ...

    Thanks for the info but the numbers don't work. Says they are disconnected......I've not heard from Paul for some time and was wondering if he has "assumed room temperature" as so many of the good old boys in the UKicon....

    Warren,
    Paul ceased dealing several years ago now. I managed to purchase a few No4 & SMLE bits & pieces off him before he did. He has totally disappeared off everyone's radar & the last thing I heard he had been taken on as a firearms inspecting officer for Nottinghamshire police..........

    Ooooooops............ That wasn't a very wise move on his part as they'll all know more than he does about the subject. Sorry, that was being a bit facetious, but knowing how they work and all that!
