  1. I don't think that's the original rearsight. I have not seen a rearsight with the bar on the windage turret that was earlier than the 1970s, but the barrel/action is 1960s (and early 1960s at that, '63 at the latest). A 1970s barrel/action would have a slightly rounded face on the bolt end-cap, and the barrel would be parallel profile, not tapered.

     

    More to the point I don't think the stock and barrelled action are original to one another. I'd say there's a dozen years plus between them. That could be an upgrade or a downgrade depending, I suppose, on where you're starting from. If it works, i.e. doesn't fold up when you aren't expecting it, the butthook is quite cool.

  2. Hi All,

    I am wondering if someone out there could please help out with purchasing a S/H wooden stock to neaten up my old Anschutz Match 54 Target Rifle (Round Action)? Something like a Supermatch Thumbhole would be great but I would consider anything that is a little bit more modern.

     

    Many Thanks

    RH or LH ?

  3. It would be a shame to scrap them

    Amen to that. More than a shame if they're in decent condition. Better to see them passed on some way they might be shot again, or do you get a bounty for scrapping them? Might someone like Yardman take them? Americans would pay good money for these if in any condition at all. Why not try Mac Tilton http://mtguns.com/, he has an agent in the UK that buys up old club guns for the US benchrest/collector market.

  4. I have a spare l/h late 1813 / early 1913 Anschutz stock I'd be willing to sell. PM me if you're interested & I'll send you pix & a price.

  5. I'd be pretty certain it's an early 16 series (transitional between 14 & 18 series).

     

    The features on the stock are consistent with this but who's to say this is the original stock - Chris says he got it 2nd++ hand?

     

    I think the HI proofmark is 1978.
