G'day Claydog,

She's a Thomas Bland finished in 1920.
Best finished scroll engraved, originally colour case hardened but that has mostly gone now.
Rear sights are quite far back which works for my eyes.
I think it has been restocked possibly by Ross Waghorn, before I got it in 2019.
Original length of pull 14 3/8 but possibly a tad shorter now.

The sidelock is not mine, photo was from dealer when I purchased her.

I have taken a few pigs with Woodleigh 400gn RNSN but no buffalo as yet. At just over 8lbs its great to carry and don't notice the recoil too much at all.

Cheers.
