Martini Rifle Purchased ...
      29/11/08 07:18 AM

I recently bought a Martini sporter in what appears to be 577/450. It started out as a beautiful rifle, engraved, etc ... I would really like to consider the following work ... suggestions?

1. Cleaned up and the dings and nicks, etc ... fixed.
2. Not lose the subtle engraving.
3. Change the caliber to something easier to work with? ... I would love this rifle in 38/55.

There aren't many markings on the rifle ... pretty much just "Made for W Bawbone Capetown" on the integral barrel rib. There is a serial number on the bottom of the receiver ~"4143*".
