While in Afghanistan I picked up the subject rifle. Stamps on barrell and side plates match, barrel is in fair condition, minimal rust pits and the wood is in good condition. The breech is smooth and appears to lock tite. Has anyone had any experience with one of these. It is .577 caliber, it is breech loaded with brass shells containing the powder, projectile and cap. It is the long, three band version.
I would not hesitate to fire this rifle (of course with minimal load at first). I do not have the brass shells, although I am looking for them.
Anyway, just wondering if anyone has any experience with this. Will post some pics later.
