I am hoping someday this rifle will transfer to me. The gun is still in South Africa. It is a full on sporting Martini with ovate barrel and the nicer quality of a Jeffrey's rifle. The current owner thinks it is 577 Snider. I suspect it is actually something longer. But I had no way when I was in SA to check. I shot it a number of times, It did not shoot very well.

This guns number is marked on the barrel.

Some where on an old back up hard drive I have pictures of this Jeffrey's Martini. Probably the one that I can no longer find the cable for.

The action of this Jeffrey's is a Francotte type Martini
identical to actions that Westley Richards used for the ZAR rifles. Of course the ZARS are military pattern not sporting. The ZAR's are marked on the bottom bottom left edge of action body adjacent to the front of the trigger guard.

I have to wonder? Could it be possible there are two Jeffrey books? One for made up guns from other makers and second for rifles that Jeffrey's made up them selves?

Just a wild desperate idea.
