Quote:Hello 4seventy,
Another double with history for your extensive collection Buck. Well done.
It's interesting to note that the second auction house wrongly described it as a "375 Flanged Magnum".
They also claimed that it had been reproofed at Birmingham.
The photo of the barrel flats seems to show only the original London proof marks with no sign of any reproof mark.
Thanks for the reply.
Yes, its amazing how many "wrong" descriptions exist for auction items. Its best to always do your own research when buying.
