It looks to good to be an original gun someone trying to pull a fast one barrels are probably Chinese; I hear JK will stamp any no. you like on them!
Sorry but I do not see the attraction of 6-7ft/lb gun costing £2-3K.
I would not even pay that for a Don Blocksidge work of art, its still only got pistol power.
Now an AA Prosport with inter changeable barrels exhibition grade stock, improved cocking lever, that would stir my interest!!!!!!
As John says, a 'Factory Undocumented Case' is new one on me as well.
It looks to be a very well adapted 'Brady' case with what appears to be a genuine 'Webley' case label. The only Webley oil cans I know off that have an off centre spout, do not have a valve spout.
The rifle doesn't appear to be anything special and the barrels can't be seen, so their condition is unknown.
The .25 barrel having a different number may slightly affect the price, but a nice three barrelled set will always attract a certain amount of interest, so who knows, but it will be interesting to see the hammer price.
As someone who would love a 177 barrel for my Mk2, could someone more knowledgeable than me comment on the reference to the barrels being Chinese. I wouldn't like to make an expensive mistake if I saw a barrel for sale.
Also, I will just comment that I bought a mint canvas and leather Brady shotgun case at a local bootfair recently for £30. Hopefully when refitted inside it will house my Mk2.
