Pattern 14

Post by joseyclosey » Tue Feb 15, 2011 8:53 am

Heres another one from my collection, its the Cindarella in my gun cabinet which always seems to miss the ball in favour of the prettier ladies in there.
This year i promised myself she shall go to the ball more often. :mrgreen:

Non matching but still with the volley sights and no Weedon marks, the metal work is a little worn in places but the bore is good and shiny and she shoots a treat.
It came fitted with the Parker Hale target sling swivel and i didn't see fit to change it even though i don't use it.

Looks like one of your collection that many of us would love to own one like. Thanks for the post. Well done and appreciated. I sure don't have one like it.....yet. Maybe one day.

Ya gotta stop this Joe.
First you show me that Martini Enfield and I gotta find one.
Now you show me this.
Sigh....... Deja Vu.


Not that I haven't wanted one for a while, but this has rekindled the lust.

Just love that rifle and especially with the volley sights still there. I've been looking for one like it. What a beauty. Thanks for showing it, Ray

My pleasure Ray. I did take it to the range today along with my M17 but owing to snow and poor visibilty on the ranges above Catterick the shoot was unfortunately cancelled. :(
