Have you seen any Japanese English copies made with this type of action?


Luis,

Not sure if the following will help or further confuse things, but Ron Sharpe told me today that he supplies SKB parts to a fellow in the U.K. who works on Webley & Scott guns. Apparently the Japanese copied the W&S, so much so that the parts are interchangeable.
