G'day gents,

Don't see many lithgows posted on this forum, here's a nice one for a bit of fun.

Its a stock standard wartime production with parkerised finish and coachwood stock. One of my better lithgows.

Enjoy the pics.

I can't say. Never fired it, but I suspect in the hands of a capable marksmen, it would kill the enemy very well.

Very beautiful rifle, Homer. Problem over here is that when you do spot a Lithgow that isn't a bitser the price on it is astronomical. Hard to pick one up when my pockets never quite seem to be deep enough.

They are not cheap in Australia either bear. It's the old law of supply and demand and they are not making these any more.

If it goes, I'll call you.

Here's another nice one muffer and clean too. Note there is no serial number on the barrel.
