Joe D.,
Thanks for the information, much appreciated.

Bob S. Thanks you also my friend. That refreshed my memory.

Terry B. So rifle no.4 had a standard Borchardt action then, not a highly modified one? As shown in lot No.508 in the Amoskeag Sale Catalogue.

I have always believed that there was just the one Borchardt modified to Br. Bakers specification by Neidner and that was in .25" Krag. Now the possibility of another in .257" Roberts has come to light. So, have Amoskeag got it wrong (unlikely as they seem generally to be more knowledgeable than most Auction Houses)or is there more than one of these modified Borchardt's around?

I know this may seem insignificant to most but it's a question that had been driving me up the wall.

EDIT Terry, cancel that last request please, I have the problem solved. I am aware now it was a standard action on that .25 Krag Borchardt you sold to Michael.
