Cheers Christel :cheers:

It's Barnard based from Mik @ Dolphin Rifle, I bought her second hand as my first F/TR rig.

Ah right, not bad as a first rifle.
So we will get pictures of small groups on targets soon?

Hello Simon,

It is that clean it has a few marks on the wood, but owned from new 1971 by the same gentleman, used in comps at Bisley over many years, and looked after it. Sadly he was taken ill and no longer able to use. I will try to keep it to the same standard.
Nice collection you have there Simon.

...there can be ONLY ONE !!





Will upload pics of the rest of the years new items in due course...

is that a Mateba?? I've been looking for one of those for years!

Yes it is, Dave. And you're not the only one who has been looking for one!

And typically, the fat hamster came up trumps! Just goes to show, there's no justice in life and karma is bollox.... :lol:

Mateba - The mystery is solved!

Indeed I did,



Very pleased with it :flag5:

I've got a new gun...sort of...It's my Ruger 10/22 but in a new stock.

I like the look of that in an odd and quirky sort of way however I am curious to know how the magazine feeds into the action, do you have any pictures of the assembly process?
