Re: Fraser 1893 Takedown

Bore condition is everything.
Listed as "very good condition" so if the seller is honest, no worries there.
Interesting that the listing says "made by Daniel Fraser" and "re-barreled by Rigby". Could simply be all Rigby with acknowledgement of Fraser's patent, for the trigger?

Probably a fair price in today's market (including covid tax!)
Take-downs are a bit special...!

Brass is made from .303 British if you can't find originals.
The clips are a bit hard to track down these days but they do turn up from time to time.

Nice looking rifle BTW.
Doesn't seem to have suffered from the usual post-Raj "India" symptoms, ie rust, borers, general neglect...
