Thread: Walnut and blued steel,

For those in the manawatu Turners in Feilding has a couple of nice .22 hornets in wood and blue.
A Bruno fox and a Zastava.

I have considered buying either one but the Hornet is an awkward calibre in NZ. Just can't us it on DOC land but if you have access to some private property they would be excellent goat and fallow rifles.

A very handsome Lee Speed by Bonehill.
Folding leaf sights behind a fixed V,with a ramp sight to Finnish.
Border engraved with dust cover and magazine cut off.
Tight and slick,a real gentleman's stalking Rifle unfortunately owned by a Bogan in Scandinavia

Finally landed one of my unicorns! An immaculate M77 Mk1 (1981) in .308win, and with iron sights!! Not many of these around, even less in this level of great condition! Came with a handmade leather sling to top it off!

I think you mean Johny McCanns maybe? Hey I'll flick up a pic of The Sako A1 .223 when I get it back from Allan Carr!!

Photos from original seller since I'm too lazy to take some new ones. The rifle I have wanted all along. Pre 64 M70 270, the Jack O'Connor rifle.

The holy grail of 270's. What a fine looking rifle, the riflemans rifle. 22 inch barrel? Keep us posted on how it shoots.

Nice. I have the same one here but in 7x57. I bought it to give to a mate who'd fallen on hard times but the dopey bugger still hasn't gotten his FAL after about 8-10 years, should sell it.

That one should never go further north than my place.

That stock looks like a Geoff Slee custom. I dribbled a bit when it came on the market Lovely piece.

What's the scope?? Looks like older m8 possibly fixed six???

Now that is classy , that stock is perfect in my eye

Now that is truly a modern classic.

Well done Ryan. It’s a beautiful thing. You’ll be lovingly caressing her for years to come.
