Good Lord!!

Could have bought a dozen Holland Royal SLEs for that!

NitroX,

That's what I thought as well. The wood on that silly bauble looks like Bakelite for one thing and the engraving like it was done by a junkie.

I wonder how it shoots...

What an appalling . . . bauble! It reminds me rather of particularly badly done sugar Easter Egg. (Shudder!)

...wonder what the history behind the rifle is, and whether the rifle was purchased for as an investment or merely to fancy the buyer...

...this is definitely within the realm of functional 'art', and should be evaluated accordingly, imho...

It looks like a rifle made for a cheesy 1970s street pimp.

Why not paint it pink and be done with ? - At least it would then look completely at home in a tarts` boudoir.
