TilleyMan

These were made in three versions. The first model with the striker firing system (1938-1948) is to be preferred. The second model with the internal hamer and top lever was followed by a side lever model with a stmped trigger guard. The third version is probably the least desireable. All are cocked by the action of the top or side lever.

Whether they are worth spending time and effort on is a matter of preferance and opinion.

If you can do all or most of the work yourself and the project interests you, a nice rifle can be put together. Have photos of probably the nicest redone 219 by Corpe and Madole copied from the RIA site a couple of years ago. (Am rather challenged when it comes to posting photos - otherwise they would be attached.)

However, one would not come near recouping his costs if he had to hire out most of the work - and he might have problems getting a professional to work on one as most seem to think these are not worth their effort.
