I belong to a rifle club in London and today I was down there shooting one of my .22 rifles. Suppressed, of course, as I often do.
One of my range buddies said I need to see a .22 rimfire rifle he acquired at an auction. He had it with him on the 50 yard range. I asked him what was so special about it, and he told me that only four of these rifles were ever made and that the whereabouts of only two of these were known, his rifle being one of them! The bolt can be removed, the handle turned and it can be set up to be used left handed. The rear sight then gets flipped also. Some of the sight components are modified BSA or Parker-Hale but the rest of the gun is special.
Can you guess what rifle this is? One clue: it was made in the 1960s...
