    I could understand if you had a pop at the droopy barrel, droopy barrel lock, leaky breech plug, clicky cocking link, wrong diameter bore... but having a go at it's 'unfortunate' looks is a bit strong!

    35s are lovely, the Export especially so!

    Classy old solid girl that's stood the test of time. Dependable, bombproof and very accurate and can embarrass many a new upstart.

    Many Exports have beautifully figured walnut stocks and that long barrel provides mega stability on aim.

    One of the all-time classic, legendary must haves.

    Dave, Phil and Nick love them, really.

    If you don't get it then that's just fine, you don't get it.

    Aye, but notice he couldn't get the muzzles in the same photo - because they're probably in the next room.
