Here is a picture of my 218 Bee with a 6x Unertl scope. It is a very accurate little rifle and has a safety installed on the back of the trigger guard.

This martini is in 17 Ackley Bee caliber. It also has a safety on the triggerguard but a different type. It has a 15x Super Targetspot on it.

Here is a picture of my newest project. I have to get the French Gray done and then install a barrel but it all takes time. I really like Martini's and have been shooting them since the early 60's.

Is this the same scene by the same engraver as Dale53s ballard? I handled that rifle when it was first built and it was a fine piece of work.
Dale are you still around on this forum?

Yes I think it is the same scene. It was originally on some of the Peabody Martini's and that is where I first saw it. I have been planning on doing this for quite a while. Here is the other side.

Don't think so.  It would have a stapler in the scene if it was!    Grin

Hello all,
Just wanted to see if we could still add to this site and it looks like we can! 
I have picked up a few more Martini's and as soon as the snow and sleet stop I will get a few pictures on here for your approval. I hope everyone is still well and more importantly, STILL WITH US!!!! Let's get this site started again I think in the last 2 years (almost) somebody had to buy or finish a Martini!!! Take care and God bless. cordell <><

You guys are giving me the bug!  I will probably have a few BSA's coming in from the UK in a few months, along with some vintage double guns.  I'll let you know when I'm ready to put them up on the auction sites.  They should mostly be unmodified .22rf target models.
