			<description><![CDATA[ I&#39;ve got several (well, four) of these converted Martinis and they&#39;re tons of fun to shoot. They come in all kinds of configurations, with original-ish
wood or sporterized wood, some polished to a high shine or reblued, some that look like they&#39;ve been used as rebar. The bores almost all take a lot of
scrubbing (unless you buy it from Hitch, who will clean it for you before he sells it) to show rifling, but once you get the lead out, they&#39;re good
shooters.

			<description><![CDATA[ John,
<br>
All I can say is duh! I completely missed the lack of a turret. To add insult to injury, I owned one of those artillery aiming scopes. I sent it along with a
British sniper scope that had a separated lens that looked like an active Petri dish to ABO. They were able to use the lenses from the aiming scope in the
sniper scope. ]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[ John
<br>
there are several scopes that are similar in style to this one used on Lee Enfield&#39;s in both world wars and one though not the same profile has its
elevation and windage adjusted on the mounts. Namely the winchester A5. the ones that are closer in profile are the Fidglands, E.R Watts &amp; Son and
Periscopic Prism Co. These can all be found in the book &quot;The Lee Enfield&quot; by Ian Skenerton on pages 169,290,518-522 and 523 so it could well have
been designed for a rifle... ]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[ If you measured the bore diameter in inches you could call it a rifle scope.  More likely it is for a &quot;rifle&quot; with wheels or something with
tracks.<img src="http://static.yuku.com//domainskins/bypass/img/smileys/wink.gif" alt="image">   Please note it is the scope mount  and NOT the scope that has
adjustments for windage and elevation. ]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[ Ken,
<br>
I believe your scope was made for a British sniper rifle. As such you should be able to trade it for a much better quality Leupold or Nikon. ]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[ Now it looks like a Martini Henry converted by W.W.Greener to .22 Long for use in UK-NRA miniature rifle competition that was then converted to a .22 Sporter.
Looks like a heavy tapered barrel. How does it shoot? ]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[ Thank you!
<br>
I&#39;ll try to post some pictures. I bought a group of rifles so it&#39;s hard to say what I did pay. It&#39;s a very interesting rifle and will probably keep
it but if I decide to sell it I would like an idea of the correct value. I&#39;ve never seen one like it before.

			<description><![CDATA[ Sure based on your description, you have a Martini Henry converted by W.W.Greener to .22 Long for use in UK-NRA miniature rifle competition.
<br>
<br>
For more information on Miniature rifle competition. http://rifleman.org.uk/welcome.html
<br>
<br>
It&#39;s value, well what did you pay for it?
<br>
<br>
Pictures would go a long way giving more specific information. ]]></description>
