If you ever think about moving it on, I might/will be in the market!

Some more of my blued steel and walnut. Well not all walnut! Shultz and Larsen Victory with 22.250 barrel and March scope, and my three brno's, (Top mint 1949 465 Hornet, middle model 5 and bottom model 1)

For those really into Brno's I thought you might like some more close ups of the 1949 Model 465 .22 Hornet. I got this from a collection and I don't believe its had any rounds through it. Almost perfect in every way.

Bit of a shame not to use it

Unfortunately many manufactures make a great rifle then fail with the magazine.

How do you rate the HW66 vs the 1710? I'm led to believe the Weihrauch is a lot closer to the Anschutz than the 2.5x cost difference would indicate.
If I hadn't found a great deal on a 1717, I'd have ordered an HW66 in .17 HMR by now. But I've never actually shot one.

Hi PaulNZ, in my humble opinion the Weihrauch is way under rated and it’s price point far below the quality you get. Machining is VG and magazine and feeding far superior. Very underrated I think. Accuracy also very good.

Ha! I’ve got plenty to use MSL!

Well it’s been an interesting week. Many uncertainties about our passion in life. Well I have a simple way to deal with it. Buy more guns! Here’s my latest purchase. May take a little more time to get through the paperwork but i’m going no where. Dakota M10 falling block in 257 Roberts. Shouldn’t be a problem with a single shot

Oh god. *Wanking noises*

That is absolutely beautiful @Southcity

Dont forget moisturiser

Wow, just wow !

Nice Rifle @Southcity
Hope it doesn't take forever to get to you.

When you do get it I would be a bit careful about dry firing it !
The M10 Dakota has a bit of a bad reputation for breaking firing pins

Thanks for the advice but I am aware of this. It’s old hat now though as they have rectified this issue. To be doubly sure though I have had it sent with snap cap.

Dakota rifles are amazing. Nice one!
