Yes - by all means.

Beautfully made - custom rifle - maybe a one-off action. there were a number of those totally custom rifles made in the .40's and 50's - maybe even early 60's in Europe prior to the self contained RF and CF ctgs. taking over.

This one might have taken ctgs. like the early Maynard, Burnside, Smith or Gallagher, all firing a contained ctg. with bullet, but by a percussion cap as this one appears to be.
