The gold trigger was a nice touch as was the 'scope friendly safety. The cheaper PH's had the Mauser swing over safety that interfered with the 'scope, and some models had an adaption that engaged before it struck the scope.

@Tahr Tisdalls on Broadway ave. That brings back some memories. It’s now a bar called Brew Union.
Sorry to side track your thread, bloody nice rifle you got there

@Shootm Yes. Worked there for a couple of years after school and during holidays. Ray Garner and Jim Newman were the mangers. Jim was the first person to take me hunting. Up through what we called Stents.

Sorry about the diversion.
