Thread: Alpine band rifle ?

Mate had one. Not as well finished as the Parker Hales of the same era. I didn't think much of it but then he traded a nice BSA for it.
I seem to recall some gun smiths wouldn't/won't work on them.
Don't know if my recall is functioning that well or why they wouldn't work on them. Could be talking shit.

Gundoc may be best to comment again.

A quick Google and there are a few commets about high quality. That's not what I recall of mate's rifle.
