It would be good if you could show pictures of the "new" rifle

I have Holt's sent an e-mail and asked whether they have a picture showing the complete weapon.
that M 88 sporter in the Belgian Congo and in Dutch east india were used is shown but this is the first weapon of British origin I found.
The magazine floorplate is a clever solution to the clip not to lose in the jungle. I have the same variant also on my 9x57 Mauser. Today still more valuable than 100 years ago.
