... all my life, seems like I'm a day late & a dollar short... I tried to start collecting Martinis about the time all the diecent actions dried up around here...

I was lucky enough to get 2 of them... both are long lever ( tropical ??? actions ) one is now chambered in 50-70 Gov. the other was a good strong action, & we took a light weight octogon barrel that was chambered in 458 Win Mag, & shortened the chamber to 45-70 that gun wears a 3 leaf safari sight, & I call it my "Martini Safari"

then... I couldn't find any more actions for a reasonable price... I'd still like to find a cadet chambered in 22 Hornet, & maybe a 22 rim fire some day...

well I was bitten by the single shot bug, years before ( I'm a Thompson Center Contender collector ) but these old girls seem to have way more charictor...

since I couldn't find any more reasonable Martini actions, I found a good deal on a #1 Remington Rolling Block that was converted to a bench rest gun in the 60's... but thats another story...

anyone shooting the old Martinis ??? original or custom ???
