Just watched the tail-end of a vintage TV show called 'The Baron' starring Steve Forrest, maybe from early sixties.

Only saw the last 10 minutes, but the bad-guy who turned out to be a good guy, but then got shot (!) turned up with a No.3 Pattern Lee Speed rifle. It got plenty of action!: waved around a bit, chucked out a window, retrieved with a rake, waved around a bit more, shot another bad guy...

The real villain though had a Mauser with an 'exaggerated' scope for the sniper assassination shot, but the tables were turned at the last second! Who would have guessed...

Episode might have been called 'The Maze'.

Its just so refreshing to see rifles with walnut stocks and blued steel on the TV screen nowadays, nary a blow-moulded black-plastic clad stainless steel infinity-magazined POS in sight!
