Stumbled across this interesting little rifle which is included in Holts next London auction in March. Looks a bit like the Martini Henry which would no doubt have appealed to the younger generation of the period.

Also noted they have moved their London saleroom to:
Holly Hedge House
Blackheath

In British slang an anorak is a person who has a very strong interest in niche subjects.
Hi Brian, l have a pistol that is cast with Harmless on both sides, and also has LW cast on one side in the grip that works in the same way as the Holts rifle. it's very similar in shape to the one in Danny's photos but it has a ring pull trigger. J.C.Milliteria had one a few years ago that is same as mine, but that was cased and if l remember right it had it's dart/arrows with it.

Surely far too nice to be classified as a mere toy.
