That's really nice! I have one of their Mauser 98's in .318WR.They appear to have the same pistol grip.

A really nice example.
I am sure you will find it an absolute pleasure to shoot, I know mine is.
Funny how, being a Mauser fan, the Lee Speed never really grabbed my attention before I owned one. Now I am always on the lookout for another nice one. They are just wonderful!

Could I ask FrankFarmer to post a picture of the front sight on his Lee Speed please. I have one which I'm considering restoring which will included cutting the barrel back an inch or so (some damage there) and removing the current bastardised front sight.

Yes, I agree, the pistol grip shape seems quite similar.
