    Great post and lovely images as ever, John.
    You most certainly do have some lovely rifles in your vast collection.
    I saw Nigel on Saturday and he told me you had retired. Hope all is good and you're feeling much better now.

    +1 Nice work on the Camargue John - you can hardly tell where the welds were

    I've bought the Camargue from Phil..... just waiting (like a kid at xmas) for ParcelForce to do their thing.

    As this is my first side-lever, is there anything I need to be wary of? I'm always curious about how the tap seals, and do they always close in the same position, to align the pellet into the breach, or do I need to develop a "knack"?

    Cheers

    You should have it tomorrow - fingers crossed.

    The taps seem pretty full proof, very positive and easy to drop the pellet in.

    Hope you enjoy it

    She just arrived safely Phil.... I've only got as far as refitting the action into the stock, but it's in lovely condition!

    I'm a happy boy!!
