    No sorry mate, my neighbour just brought them over to show me so I thought I would share them with guys that might find them interesting.

    He nui to ngaromanga, he iti to putanga.

    You depart with mighty boasts, but you come back having done little.
    Sounds like a typical hunting trip !

    The 44 winchester is a nice light little riffle and comes up great (just feels really nice).
    He said his Dad paid 12 pound for it second hand back in the day.
    Not sure how much it was used before he bought it but he said not many rounds have gone through it since his Dad owned it.

    If you look the serial number up on here for the Winchester, you can date it.
