The tang, though its not come out well on the picture
There is a breech plug, whether it is the original I could not say,
but it looks very similar to Griffiths illustration on p68
I know very little about these but there was a thread earlier this year posted by someone who needed a pellet probe. There was a wide selection of different ones that had apparently been fitted at different times.
I think Trevor contributed one of his published works on the topic. I've seen an advert showing them on sale, new, for 5 shillings complete with pellets. I have one of the later Gat-like ones which would appear to have been overpriced at 5 bob.

I've been exploring and was wrong about Trevor and the date. It was mostly Herpquest, Tantomurata, DCLDave and Wadhill
in midNovember. Search Dolla probe wanted.
