It was made by WW Greener on a BSA Lee-Speed. It is quite nice with all the neat attributes including a full rib on the barrel. The best part is the bore and chamber are near mint.

I am very much in the search to acquire a box of collector's ammo to go with my Speed. I am looking for a Red & Yellow box of Kynoch 303 British cartridges. If there is a chance you could assist please let me know. Thanks.
