I have recently acquired a .22 AA Carmague sidelever. It handles really well. Infact it is one of the best handling rifles i have ever owned. It is well balanced, but its the Tyrolean stock that makes the difference. It allows the cheek to position itself perfectly,for me anyway. I will search for more details ref AA sidelevers,but if anyone has any useful information, please let me know. I am also on the lookout for a .177 Carmague,just got to get one.
I have 2 camargues, 1 x r/h and a super rare l/h both in .22. I shoot l/h and its probably my favourite of the 20 or so rifles i have. .177`s are hard to find as the model came out when .177`s were not considered to be as powerful as the .22 so were not very popular.
If you need any technical info let me know.

Crumbs!!
I had one of those but felt compelled to let a chap have it due to a mistake!!
I was selling a Sussex Armouries Jackal in the local Admag,(plastic stock but no idea which model) and a lad phoned at 11.30pm , at first I thought it was a mate messing about but it turned out to be a genuine enquiry..
He asked what bus to catch to get to mine, I had no idea having not used a bus in twenty years so I asked him to phone back the next day at a 'more reasonable' hour..
The phone rang the next day and the chap said 'it's about the Jackal' so I said, give me your address and i'll fetch it over..
I went with the rifle to the house which wasn't exactly the same district that I was told the previous night but very close..
The bloke paid me the £30 for the pseudo military rifle but he didn't sound the same as the previous night so I asked, "you did phone last night didn't you??"
Nope says he
when I explained that I had thought he was someone else he wouldn't let me have it back
The lad phoned when I got back and was really upset so I said that he could have the 8" barrelled wooden stocked one for the same price (it was twice the gun that the plazzie one was), he was overjoyed but I was pi55ed off
I wish i'd kept me gob shut!!!
