I've been following that too - absolutely staggering!

Hmmm...I was at that auction in '97 and still have the same cat'g. No idea it had any value.

I bought quite a few of the leftovers that didn't sell at auction. Some very nice rifles. I couldn't believe you British guys didn't snap them up! I also bought all of the remaining L42s that C.O. had for sale. With a little tender loving care and a long distance Armourer's course conducted by, "you know who", (not to mention necessary telescope repairs!), all 31 or so became completely serviceable and are on the ranges of England, New Zealand, Australia, Canada and the USA being loved and used to this day by appreciative collectors. I wish I had them all back. They've more than doubled in price since those days. The GOOD OLD DAYS have come and gone!!
