Since the stock has been replaced and the back of the trigger guard and tang altered, it would be on the water-table/action-flats, barrels, and fore-end. Crickets. I have 581 Reilly's in the database whose parameters are known. Always on the lookout for another since you can never tell when one might appear which changes some of the dating chronology. Thanks for your help. Last edited by Argo44; 02/10/23 10:29 PM. Baluch are not Brahui, Brahui are Baluch
