I want that Werndl.......BAD!

    Joe.

I can get you a Wrendl Joe.  The bore is a little big for schuetzen, the stock is a bit plain and the engraving is missing, but you will have the real deal  Wink

I think the Austrian gun has a (modified) Werndl action. These actions were commonly seen in Austria and Germany.

I'm curious about the plate in the face of the breechblock of this Ballard. I've seen quite a few on center-fire guns converted to rimfire. What's the purpose on this one? Adjust head-space maybe?
