As for Tom Burgess Enfield metalwork, an Echols stocked .416 is in my Custom Rifles book and I've seen another .340 Weatherby with an Echols stock and a .375(?) Burgess Enfield stocked by Fisher.
Tommy's metalwork was always inovative and it's difficult to even see an Enfield in the results.


I know Stephen, I was surprised also. Apparently I was wrong about the 1988 ACGG Raffle gun, I have been told the metal work was by Ted Blackburn. The photo I posted above was given to me by GSP7 of this forum and is one of Tom Burgess' 1917's.

My problem lies in reconciling my gross habits with my net income.
