Thought the acquisition of this rifle was as good a reason as any to bring out my other Type As for a bit of a comparison. (as if I needed a reason to get them out)

It is very interesting to take note of the subtle differences between the rifles especially in the stocking.
Even the leaves of the rear sight are different from one another.
One would think that could be in regard to the different chambering of each but it could be that and the differing contours of the barrels.
I will post pictures of this later.
