All good things come to an end so the saying goes, and for me a couple months ago it did with my partner and I splitting up. This has incurred significant costs (thank goodness I wasn’t married) and suffice to say I cannot justify having all these fun things when I am in debt. A man must live by his actions.
As a result I am selling each and every rifle from my collection and I write this as a warning to all those with treasured collections. Always have a rainy day fund to cover yourself, hope for the best and prepare for the worst.
So in the order imgur has put them

1. A CSA VZ.58 Straight Pull .223 Remington, 18.5 inch barrel with 1-9 twist. This rifle is without a doubt more accurate than I am and with cheap handloads is able to print 1.5 inch groups. Rifle comes with 5x 30 round magazines, a red dot sight mount and a large number of 5.56 cases. £750
2. An all matching Lee Enfield No4 Mk2 made in Fazakerly, Liverpool, England in 1949. £550, barrel in excellent condition.
3. An all matching Lee Enfield No1 Mk3* made by BSA, Birmingham, England in 1917. Barrel in nearly new condition. £600
4. An all matching Swedish M96 that was manufactured in 1943 in Husqvarna and was placed in a box, left for 74 years during which it found its way into an estate cellar for many years before I saw it advertised randomly on a national website along with a scope mount. Part of the evidence for its lack of issue condition is that it has no stock disc and its overall condition. To clarify the scope is a no drill n tap, this rifle is staying historical. This is hands down the most pleasurable calibre to shoot and the best value for money rifle I have ever bought. £600 excluding the scope.
5. A 1931 M91/30 Mosin Nagant made in Tula. The wood on her is perfect and the rifle was refurbished by Thames Valley Guns. £250
6. A 1943 M38 Mosin Nagant made in Izveshk, £250
7. A 1937 Mauser K98 made at the BSW factory and as such is comparatively rare compared to many other Mauser variants. With Sellor & Bellot ammo she prints 2.5 inch groups at 100yds. £650
8. A 1955 BRNO Model 5, comes with a 3x9x32 scope as shown in the album. £150
All rifles can be provided with cases, dies and sleeves which are to be negotiated separately.
