'Courteous Curmudgeon'
SOLD
A real collector's classic so I am told. I recently bought this rifle thinking I'd get a left handed stock for it. Sadly I just can't get on with the RH comb and not wanting to muller the stock I've decided to let it go to a good home.
The rifle is the earlier of the 2 Park models and is in .22 with a beech right handed sporter stock and a period scope -an ASI 4x40 which is bright and clear. It shoots really nicely and is truly recoil-free. I would give the metalwork 9 out of 10 and the stock about 6/10. It is beech not walnut and has some blemishes.
As with all so-called 'collector' items I really don't know how much to ask for this . However I know they are rare and this one is in good working order so I'm offering it at £400 plus post unless picked up in person. Just to be clear I'm not going to be offended if someone wants to make me an offer -please do so. You never know I might accept it-or turn it down.

UPDATE AND BUMP.
I now have a better idea of what this item should fetch.
So far I have received a couple of genuine and identical offers for this rifle and scope which I have not yet accepted or rejected. Thanks for that.
I will keep this advert open until the close of play tomorrow Sunday and if I haven't agreed a transaction by then I shall contact each of the members who have offered in the order in which the offers were made.

Clarification is clearly necessary. The offers I have received are below my asking price and have not been accepted or rejected. This item is NOT being auctioned: the first person offering my asking price gets the rifle.Originally Posted by kevmar

Nick if you don't get what you need I can put it into Holts for you

I have chrono'd the rifle and the results are as follows:
I used FTT straight from the tin taking 14.7 grains as the weight.
594 (11.5)
600 (11.8)
588 (11.3)
585 (11.2)
601 (11.8)
I think this shows reasonable consistency for a rifle that has had very little use and certainly has been idle for years!
