Local gunshow was this morning. Walked out with a low wall in 22lr. British proof marks, good bore, #1 barrel,  Lyman tang sight, factory rear barrel sight,  BSA globe front.

It's in nice shape, you don't find them in that condition very often. Good find!

Changed front sight to a Lyman Combination, pulled rear barrel sight to get it out of the way and took it down to junk pile and tried it on an old freezer. Got it close to zeroed. Maybe better weather tomorrow.

Ballards may be weaker,
but they sure are neater!

Nice rifle Jordan! It's pretty rare to ever see a rifle go to England that didn't have a shotgun buttplate. Every single shot or lever action I've ever bought with British proofs had a shotgun buttplate. Great find, and very nice condition!
