Re: 8 bore vs 4 bore
|
Thankyou sirs.
Well,the item in question looks somewhat older than 1937.....
Also though,at £2,250 seems to be an amazing bargain for a .500 NE of any sort......im wondering if this 'nitro proofed' statement is merely a mistake...certainly doesnt seem worthwhile advertising it as an NE for such a low price, unless it is an NE and perhaps a bit rough......certainly isnt in amazing condition......
I have enquired about it,and will report the result which i am certain will be 'sorry our chap had written the advert incorrectly'
Lets wait and see.........
I must say,i still have very good contacts in Blighty for such guns,its all a matter of what you happen to want,what you wish to use, and much more besides.......
I'd rather have an 8 bore rifle over a .500 NE any day, but this is more a personal,and historical thing,than anything else......
