Hi Guys, Thanks for all the help, if theres a place on the net where the members know speeds, this would have to be the place. sve This gun sat in a closet since the 60s. There was literally 1/2 inch of dust inside the trigger guard, the barrel was stuffed with dust bunnies. it was black and dirty everywhere. Heres what I have learnt. Was purchased new in the UK by great grand dad. Gun was brought over to Canada from UK by great grand dad in late 1919. Was given to grand dad in the 1930s. Was accidentally bumped and the port side of the butstock got slightly burnt in a camp fire in mid 30s. Stock and fore end are original and have never been changed. The front sight is original, it's the BACK site that has been replaced (my bad sorry). Apparently the original sight is in one of the boxes containing grand dads stuff, as my Mom said she has seen "gun parts" she thinks may be a sight of some form. (cant confirm as of yet) What is the barrel length? -Measured from the mating line where it says "Trade Mark" it is exactly 19 inches to the end of barrel. What does the front sight look like? Sorry, its original, its the back sight that was changed, maybe im dyslexic. Is there a "V" in a circle anywhere on the barrel? Yes there is, starboard side by the two sets of "625" Is there anything stamped on the top-right-rear part of the action, where the bolt slides in? Yes there is, its marked "G25" and what mabe a . and perhaps something else but cant see it verry good. What are the numbers on the bolt? Do they match the numbers on the action or barrel? 625, times two one on back of bolt hadle and another underside of bolt. Yes they match the barrel numbers. |
