I got this rifle a few years ago from a fellow club member who was downsizing his collection of rifles. I was buying another rifle off him and he asked if I wanted this as well. I wasn't too bothered about having it but he wanted rid and said I could have it for £55 so I took it.
It is dated 1908 and shoots OK and is in quite good condition for its age.

A common mistake that people make when trying to design something completely foolproof is to underestimate the ingenuity of complete fools!!

Re: BSA War Office trainer
I literally saw one of those a couple of days ago! And a Lee Enfield No9!!!
In 1978 I was told by my grand dad that the secret to rifle accuracy is, a quality bullet, fired down a quality barrel..... How has that changed?
