308

Firstly, I can not afford these makes but the rifle of same quality can be made in Australia for a lot less - ??? of same quality, maybe, and that is a big maybe. A few here could do it but big $ to do is right.

1. London Proof Marks will only add Novelty value to the 416, it is unlikely to add anything else unless it has a name to the gun.

Re $280 insured for $3000 mail return
$ 40 Proof
$200 Brokerage
$100 guess for other charges

You forgot the 100 Pounds when the rifle leaves the UK
which is another $250.00

And if the Freight company gets slugged $100 coming through Singorpore or one of the other airports that charge, more money.

"or selling the rifle there" - it still wouldn't add any value to the gun.

Personally, I would spend the money on getting EAW or Holland Style Claw mounts instead of proofing it.
