Yes. This buying thing puts a dent in the restoration process! You keep telling yourself you can't pass up an opportunity to get such and such a gun because it would clean up nice, and then you don't have the money to clean it up because another rare old classic comes along you can't live without! What a disease! Nice rifles, by the way. Norman4




It truely is! Or else you kick yourself for passing it up! Lot's of the old rook rifles are shot out and need relining, i passed up a mega cheap one that turned out to be a Kangaroo rifle (i think it was a .450 No1 on a small frame martini?) for a couple hundred backs

Going to have another Mannlicher (well, actually it's a Mannlicher Schoenauer, so a first for me) on the way which puts a delay in this one.. But i've tried to set a cap for 2 guns this year. Well...2nd month in and i'm at 1! (the Churchill i bought last year, doesn't count!). Am selling off to refine what i've got though, so i'm actually selling 2 rifles to raise money for this one.
