I was contacted a couple of years ago by a Zim's agent acting for the owner of Fletchers BG rifle whom wanted to sell it.



I have since lost contact with the agent representitive and dont actually know if the rifle was in fact ever sold !!! I even went to the trouble to design a website and uploaded it to one of the tripod servers ...



Anyhow, to cut a long story short, check out the website I set up for the rifle sale as it makes some very interesting reading, if anyone knows whether the rifle was in fact sold and to whom please let me know more deatails so I can update the information



Fletchers Royal H & H 500 / 450
