    Improved Model B

    Don't see many honest examples of the 'B' This one has had an easy life, by the look of it though.

    Yes indeed Eddy, I had that one for years, then sold it to raise funds for another rifle. This one will probably go the same way one day.

    Wow that is a very rare time capsule, amazing condition Ed! Love pete's rifle as well. The early ones are incredibly elegant, handcrafted quality all over them.
