Hello,

500Nitro - I did buy the gun (what choice did I have), the bolt knob is a seperate piece of metal but the engraving matches the rest of the gun. I will attempt some additional photos.

Huvius - the bolt knob is not aluminum. I have heard mention of aluminum, ebony or horn bolt knobs, I understand this was so the bolt didn't get too hot in the African sun(???). The engraving on the mounts seems to match the rest of the gun. The bridge may be soldered on. I will attempt better photos.

zimhunter - This rifle does actually have the notch machined at the reat of the front ring to allow clearance for the long projectile. I would be happy to post your photos if you would like, just e-mail them to me vintagesxs@live.ca

Paul - How can I determine the maker of the receiver/action? What photo could I provide to allow you to assist in that determination?

Thank you all for your input.

Mark
