Have any of you guys ever seen or heard about this. This is from "Gunny" R Lee Ermeys personal collection. The description of events when the rifle was fired is disturbing..... https://www.gunbroker.com/item/912282832 The rest of the collection.... https://www.ebrwebstore.com/r-lee-ermey-auctions-2/ "The difference between adventure and disaster is preparation."

Looks like it was a nice rifle back in the day, not a "Counterfeit" as such, was proper Double rifle with Chopper Lump barrels, now with very worn bores, looks like a restock in India & something bad happened to the hook & then it was deactivated by the looks ? Thanks for posting as very interesting to see it ! | |||

The rest of the collection was not too impressive. Nice Winchesters but drileld for scope mounts. Really not much to look at. _______________________________ Cal Pappas, Willow, Alaska www.CalPappas.com www.CalPappas.blogspot.com 1994 Zimbabwe 1997 Zimbabwe 1998 Zimbabwe 1999 Zimbabwe 1999 Namibia, Botswana, Zambia--vacation 2000 Australia 2002 South Africa 2003 South Africa 2003 Zimbabwe 2005 South Africa 2005 Zimbabwe 2006 Tanzania 2006 Zimbabwe--vacation 2007 Zimbabwe--vacation 2008 Zimbabwe 2012 Australia 2013 South Africa 2013 Zimbabwe 2013 Australia 2016 Zimbabwe 2017 Zimbabwe 2018 South Africa 2018 Zimbabwe--vacation 2019 South Africa 2019 Botswana 2019 Zimbabwe vacation 2021 South Africa 2021 South Africa (2nd hunt a month later) ______________________________ | |||

I'd buy it for a couple of bucks plus shipping. Would make a an interesting wall wall hanger. "Whensoever the General Government assumes undelegated powers, its acts are unauthoritative, void, and of no force." --Thomas Jefferson | |||

So are you guys saying this is a real Jeffrey, NOT a counterfeit? I am not an expert but the metal fit looks pretty bad to me. Of course what do I know, I hunt with Rugers! ![]() "The difference between adventure and disaster is preparation."

That looks to me like a fake hand made in India. In other words, a bespoke hunk of junk. ![]() Mike Wilderness is my cathedral, and hunting is my prayer. | |||

Well, considering that Jeffery never made any of their own guns, what is a counterfeit Jeffery really? Maybe this just came out of the shops of one of their lesser known subcontractors on the subcontinent? ![]() In all seriousness, I wouldn't pay $50 as a cabin wall hanger, even given the ownership history that they are really trying to sell. I've got my grandfather's 120 year old 22 that had the stock burned off in a house fire, has a furniture from an uncle who was a teenager at the time, and was used hard by generations of kids for a century, and still has vastly better fit and finish. I would love to know the story, however! Bob DRSS "If we're not supposed to eat animals, why are they made out of meat?" "PS.

AS far as we know, the Jeffrey doubles were made by Leonard and have a characteristic 4 digit number on barrel under forend. Nothing in this rifle. The proof marks look very poorly done in comparison to my A Hollis 450-400 made by Leonard. Bob | |||

Mr. Ermy should have talked to somebody, because he got had. At least he was not selling fake concert tickets for $100. I’ve seen people get beat up for that. | |||
