Mick,

I'm hardly ever that lucky. The deals you mentioned are indeed great deals - I find that in this neck of the woods anyone with a bolt rifle made by Rigby, Holland & Holland, Westley Richards, etc. wants two arms and a leg for them. Actually any British made pre-WW2 rifle commands a premium.
I've had a few trade deals fall through for one reason or another, but I'm always looking. I should catch up to you in a decade or two.

John
