Project 2A1 Rascal The saw and pencil come out.

My 257 - you aint seen nothing yet!

God forbid? Going to get it proofed?

Speaking of Ishapore Rifles i have just been offered a 1965 dated 2A rifle from a mate who is retiring from shooting for the princely sum of £100.The rifle looks great and has only had blank fired through it so the barrel looks really good. I already have a 1966 dated 2A1 rifle that i had to restock with a SMLE stock due to a very large split in the butt stock.

Ticket is definitely going in for variation in January!

Grab it with both hands

No need. Not selling it!

Would anyone buy it?

Probably not, so it's a moot point...

But after seeing that Mauser 'tanker' a long term project would be to take it back to 257 Roberts, 7x57 or something different, add a detachable box mag (G43, BAR or similar), iron sights, shorten/thread the barrel and so.

Edit - It's a mongrel anyway!
