Dear Colleagues,

My family used to make rifles for Jeffery and my father told me that the ministry conducted a test and one of their rifles pierced a 1/4 inch steel plate. I doubt that the German snipers had 1/2 steel plates. I believe it all started when some officers took their own big bore sporting rifles with them when posted to the front line and found them very effective. I cannot understand why it is engraved as the example would not have had engraving when issued, must have been done later, or maybe it was bought off the general market for trial purposes.

Regards to all

Stewart Leonard
