I just love those Martini's, fine rifles with so much history. They are creeping up in price now, at one time you couldn't give them away.

I also know of a drill hall with eight No 8s sitting there doing nothing but can't get anyone to make a decision on either selling them or using them.

Someone will want new curtains and then you can get them back into use by making them an offer.

The u/l at 25 works really well with the tang site...yes, minus the scope and rail. 44mag incidentally.

After owning it for a whole 3 days before it was confiscated as a Section 5 firearm, then the epic 7 month battle between me, Southern Gun Co, the Home Office and the Police before getting it back, for me its got to be my SGC LRA9;
