"I've a confession to make ... the pics took too long, but here they now are."

These two photos could be redone without the bags I think.

Still need to find the open sights and put them back onto the rifle.

Basically a simple re-modelling of a Parker Hale 1200 Delux. Replacement of the stock from a blank supplied by Roger Vardy. Stockwork by Ross Waghorn, including the buffalo horn forend. Some metal work ie replacement of the bolt handle by Bob De Vries.

The barrel could do with a clean up and re-blueing one day.

And Blitzen was very excited by the photo session.
