I'm after a sporterised rifle in .303 must be in excellent overall condition and have provision for scope fitting.

Something like this?



If so, go peek at emmacustomrifles.co.uk

Or you could scurry on over to Highwood Classic arms and take a peek at 4 or 5 that Simon has for sale, including this one

That kind of thing but not with a crappy synthetic stock, I'm after more of a period piece I can shoot the classic running deer and sporting rifle comps.

Thanks for the heads up I will give highwood classic arms a bell tomorrow.

I have seen the one mentioned by meles, it very nice

I really like that... that's the first wooden rifle I *really* like!

This is my one.

If it's of any help, I own a No.4 Parker Hale like the ones featured on Highwood's site. Mine retains it's original rear sight.
I will vouch for their quality as guns, accurate as hell!

Those BSA No1 Gentleman's sporters really are super looking rifles aren't they, I really like the flattened Cavalry Carbine bolt handles. Does yours have an inscribed retailer or owners address?

A friend of mine bought a real minter, the type with the barrel rib, looking forward to having a shoot with it in the spring.
